| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
I was able to drive my Honda Accord to the trailhead relatively easily. There are two short steeper sections of the Kibby Mtn. Rd. that have a little washout on one side, but it was easy to navigate around them. Gold Brook/Beaudry Rd. is in good shape, although I did get a small tire puncture, which was easily repaired. Carry a tire repair kit and tire compressor/inflator! |

| Comments: |
A light rain served as a welcome respite from the heat and humidity. Nice views from lower on the trail of the Beaudry. Great hike, gently graded except for the last pitch to the summit. The summit was socked in, so no views. Couldn't get the pencil out of the bottom of the canister and the summit log was pretty wet. |
