 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Because of the last few days with rains, there was a brook that gave us some problems at around a quarter mile from the beginning. Finally, the best path to cross the brook was to draw a direct line with the path. No need to find a path 100-200 yards above... |

 | Comments: |
