| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Most trails were in good shape except for the Ridge Trail. There is major erosion on this trail with some sections in terrible shape. These sections should be closed. There is also a few places where it is hard to follow. The Beaver Brook Trail from the summit to the Ridge Trail has almost no white blazes at all. You almost don't know if you are still on the AT until you get to a trail junction. |
