 | Comments: |
Note: the sign for the Bickford Slides loop on Blueberry Ridge trail is misleading; cross the brook, then look left for the obvious trail. Great waterfall loop, and the views are better without leaves on the trees. Bickford Brook trail has good footing and nice grade for most of the way, it is the old access road for the fire tower. The ledges on Blueberry Ridge trail are of a very grippy rock, no slipping even though they were wet. |
