lots of them out. Didn't get bit but didn't stop long enough to find out and had the bug spray on, it was needed for the mosquitos. When I stopped it was the annoying ones that just stick to you everywhere that gave me issues. |

There was a black mesh pouch thingy hanging from a tree on the Mount Tom Spur Trail |

| Comments: |
Sorry for the late post on the report. Only two things of note. The recent small relocation of the Avalon Trail is a muddy mess and very slippery after rain (as bad as an Adirondack herd path!). The small blowdown section between Mount Field and Willey has a nice herd path forming. |
