Hiking Trail Conditions Report
	Peaks	Mt. Isolation, NH

	Trails:	Rocky Branch Trail, Isolation Trail, Davis Path, Isolation Spur

	Date of Hike:	Saturday, September 6, 2014

	Parking/Access Road Notes:	Pulled in on Friday night around 5:30 and there were only 5 cars at the trailhead off 16. Plenty room for more. There were maybe 10 when we left at noon on Saturday.

	Surface Conditions:	Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Wet/Slippery Rock, Standing/Running Water on Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable

	Recommended Equipment:

	Water Crossing Notes:	Multiple river crossings, easily managed by rock hopping. Only one wet foot throughout the day!

	Trail Maintenance Notes:	Muddy in areas at the top of rocky branch and isolation. Few trees blown across the trail that require you to duck underneath. Nothing major.

	Dog-Related Notes:	Met one golden along the way that was completing her 48th! She was a bit muddy but was having a blast. Hope they made it down before the rain!

	Bugs:	A little buggy but nothing major

	Lost and Found:	Blue llbean shirt on the upper part of isolation. It was hanging on a branch.


	Comments:	Hiked in on Friday night and stayed at a tent site before the rocky branch/ isolation split. We slept in hammocks and felt comfortable. There are a few somewhat flat areas for tents. We made it down before the storms so I imagine the conditions may have changed a bit. 17 more to go.
