 | Comments: |
There are many blue paint markers on trees and are quite visible. And these marks are fairly close. But Appalachian Trail paint markers are white and with snow I had a lot of difficulty spotting them.
This portion of the trail was broken, but it was not easy to follow in some places. And then there is, near the Cooper Loj, a multitude of ski trails in the woods that mingles with the footpath. |
