 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Some of the snow bridges are starting to become unstable - I punched through a couple of the smaller ones. Toward the bottom of the Bunnell Notch trail, the "slalom" area (where there are several small stream crossings) there is open water but it's easy to rock hop across - the approaches to the stream crossings can be slick with wet, slushy snow, so be careful. |

 | Comments: |
We were going to try to make a loop of it - or at least go visit the Bulge & the Horn - but the broken out part of the trail ends at the summit of Cabot, and suddenly crawling into our sleeping bags at the cabin seemed like a much better option. |
