|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Over all every trail was in almost perfect shape! A few blow down areas around the top of the bowl on Rollins, but most of them have been taken care of/cut/moved etc. Even Tom Wiggin trail was in great shape (not nearly as bad as the sign on Daicy's mill makes it sound). Only 1 very small spot where its quite steep with some loose dirt. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Plenty of dogs out for a nice hike today :-) Only trouble spot may be a couple spots on the blueberry ledges, but most people I talked to during the day said the dogs had a much easier time than the people! |
|
| Bugs: |
black flies all day, only solution was to keep moving. |
