 | Comments: |
Trails and work roads were generally dry with some minor mud in places.
Lower mountain trails mostly mowed, but upper mountain still has a lot of tall grass.
Major construction going on along the Sun Dance lift line (that the access road crosses), so I hopped onto some trails to avoid it.
Major construction going on near the highpoint (near the top of the Sunbrook chair), but one can stay on the permitted side of the construction tape and get around it. The herd path to the recognized highpoint is near a valve house above the Sunbrook chair.
Nice fall morning with partly sunny skies. Foliage is definitely past peak (less color/leaves than New Hampshire), but still some nice colors down low. |
