 | Comments: |
It rained the previous night, so the trails were wet and muddy almost all of the way. We changed plans on Sugarloaf's Summit and decided to hike down the ski slope. This is the shortest route, but also the steepest and very slippery with wet and loose rocks. I would recommend hiking down the trail instead of the slope. |
