| Comments: |
Cedar Brook and the lower Loop make for a very rootsy route, slowing the pace relative to the much smoother conditions on the trail in the winter. Fortunately the roots were dry, as were the steeps below the summits. With low humidity and lots of sun, the view from the north overlook was magnificent. |
