Comments
Comments: Glencliff to Carraige road and back again on Hurricane trail. The trail on Forest Service land could use a brushing and some blowdown clearing. Noted 2 sizable reroutes with another one planned on the Dartmouth side of the ridge. Also many new sections of turnpiking, drainage, and other trail hardening measures on the DOC side. Also, there has been a side trail cut to a limited, but interesting view from near the height of land. Had it not been for cloud cover, I'd of been looking at Kineo, Stinson, and Carr Mtns I suspect. As it was, I could only see the lower hills in front (Whitcher Hill.) Thanks to DOC and any other volunteers for the work here.
