| Comments: |
The Flume Slide has beaten paths for the tougher sections that you can choose to use. Near the top of the slide there looks to be a well defined herd path that heads left, stay right to stay on the slide. Hi-Cannon trail has some different foot paths just to the side of the main trail in a few places bypassing a steep part here and there and the ladders steps on Hi-Cannon look old but are holding up well. If Hiking through the Cannon Balls on the Kinsman Ridge expect some wet, slippery rocks with boot sucking mud in places. Kinsman Pond Trail is part of a brook for a portion of the trail with soggy side paths in certain sections. Awesome long day hike! |
