WODC has done lots of high quality work here. First time I'd seen the many rock steps. Well done and thanks. |

Dry so bring extra water. Ledges may be too much for some dogs. |

Black flies out and biting when stopped. I lathered up a few times which kept them away. Mosquitoes down low mid afternoon and large annoying flies at Blueberry Ledge-Cutoff jct. on way up. |

 | Comments: |
Blueberry Ledge Tr. nice and dry. Ledges had plenty of traction; many hikers planning on going down. Rollins Tr. was a mix of nice dry trail and slick wet rocks from humidity which required care. Dicey's Mill was mostly dry with some slick rock near top and minimal mud down low. Nice day; a little hot. Was greeted by lightning show immediately after getting home in Vt.---perfect timing. |
