 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Two water crossings not marked on map. Very difficult. To pass, at the first crossing bushwhack up the brook on the left side until you come to an old snowmobile road. Take a right over a bridge. The snowmobile road now intersects with the Garfield Trail, but keep going straight until you cross another bridge. After this second bridge, take a left into the woods and bushwhack, headed upstream. You will now intersect with the Garfield Trail. Safe and dry. |

 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Two or three blowdowns, not a problem getting around. Monorail is becoming more pronounced, expect to posthole at least a few times later in the day. 'Tis the season! |
