We had a great day on the Belknap Range. There was an overcast, but the views were still nice. Stayed on Gunstock for a while, then head to the plane crash site on Belknap, then over to North Peak of Piper and sat on Flintstone furniture. lol All the trails were in pretty good condition. There was some mud in spots, but avoidable. If you go down to the crash site, be careful, the rocks and moss were very slippery. We did video our day for anyone who might like to see it. Be forewarned if you like the element of surprise, we did video the crash site too, but we do not show where we left the trail or where the geocache is located. |
