| Comments: |
Trails were snow free and mostly dry. A few areas of wet ledge, but nothing too bad.
On the descent of the Carriage Road, I heard a gunshot from the direction of the Piper Mountain Trail just after sunrise this morning, then saw bleeding deer run across the Carriage Road from that direction. |
