 | Comments: |
McCrillis trail was a great treat, what a wonderful trail. Some of the rocks up higher are a bit slick as they are not walked on all that much.
Tom Wiggin Trail - is signed as "steep and loose, not recommended" and the bruise on my butt would have to agree!! Just have to take it slow if going down that one!
Too bad the McCrillis Path is closed, but the 0.9 that is open is a beautiful walk. |
