 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
several blow downs on N Twin Trail; I removed a rolls worth of fresh orange flagging tape on the Bond Cliff Trail, mostly between Bond Cliff and Bond. So, fair warning to whomever tied this trash to shrubs and even some cairns if you were planning to use later this winter. (Why in the world tie flagging to a cairn?) Please refrain from using flagging on our trails; please stay home until you have the experience to hike White Mountain trails without the use of flagging. |

 | Comments: |
Decided to avoid the high winds with a Presi traverse today, and opted for the next best traverse in the Whites needed for my November solo grid list. Thanks to Steve Smith for car spot, which I earned by tending his store a month ago. :-) |
