 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Most crossings are minor except for the beaver pond which crosses the Conant Trail (southern section) - took a 15-minute bushwhack around it - not trivial - you kind of go off in the wrong direction and it's dicey cutting back through HUGE raspberry bushes!!!! |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
good blazes and some nice axe-work. Southern section very lightly travelled, so, need to check for blazes often. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
would be OK - lots of water! |
|
 | Bugs: |
pretty bad - lots of mosquitoes! |
