Comments
Comments: Caps Ridge is in rough shape in spots because of the blowdowns. You have to go around a few of them but it's not difficult. All trails above treeline are in excellent shape! The Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail is in good shape, the broken trees along the river are a cool site to see. Lots of people hiking to and from Lakes of the Clouds Hut, weather ended up being better than expected!
