Comments
Comments: Started at Pinkham using Lost Pond to avoid the river crossing. Lost Pond was very wet and rocky. Wildcat Ridge steep as expected, with some very muddy areas on the flat sections in the woods. Challenging in places, but generally footing was OK and wet leaves were not a big problem. Saw Wildcat employees working on the water system for snowmaking on the Polecat. Kristin finished up her 48 on this picture perfect day.
