 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
There are several blowdowns, but nothing too serious.
But the real problem is inadequate blazing. The combination of a lightly-used trail and a new layer of fallen leaves makes this trail very difficult to follow. I could not find the trail continuation several times and had to resort to my GPS and a prior hikers track to find my way. |
