Trails were mostly dry and in good shape.
Shame on me for having not gone the extra quarter of a mile or so beyond the North Bubble summit in the past. Fantastic ledge views from atop those cliffs.
Conners Nubble also had fantastic 360 views, including the cliff view over Eagle Lake.
Instead of descending to the north, I doubled back down the short rugged stretch of trail to the carriage road, then took that to the Jordan Pond Carry Trail (taking a brief detour to the shore of Eagle Lake), then back to the parking lot to close the loop. Lots of work has been done on that stretch of the Carry Trail to fix muddy areas. |
