Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: The AMC Guide warns that Eastman Brook, at the start of this section of the Tecumseh, is "difficult" in high water, but I guess the water wasn't high, despite all the recent rain, as the Brook was a shallow, easy rock-hop. 
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Trail in great shape. 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes:  
Bugs
Bugs: They didn't bother me, but a hiker I met complained that they were tormenting him. My bug-repellent outfit works well - I have yet to require DEET or the like this year.

Comments
Comments: I much prefer this northern segment of the Tecumseh Trail to the more popular southern section, which has rough, eroded stretches.
