| Comments: |
Hiked in on the AT during the rain, several downed trees and some spots of snow on way to little Bigelow. Last couple hundred feet of climb up to Avery was 60% rotten snow with lots of falling through. Plenty of wet slick rocks too. Besides being wet Safford Brook looked to be in fair condition. |
