 | Comments: |
An easy 3 mile loop in Camden Hills State Park with some nice views from several ledges along the way. Easy grades pretty much all the way. No snow at all in the area. Maiden Cliff heading up to junction with ridge trail - stretches of trail with running water and mud, above junction trail pretty well dry with only a small patch or two of mud. Scenic trail and ridge trail also generally dry. |
