We hiked south to north on Albany Mtn. trail, lots of wet areas, but with careful footing, easy enough to get around. Where the trail takes a sharp right (where Albany Notch trail used to go straight) a sign would be helpful. Nice views from ledges by summit.........some cairns keep going after the summit and descend a ways. Great day to be out and enjoying the views! |
