 | Comments: |
Greenleaf Trail to hut was a bit wet in places, but okay. Ridge was in okay shape. Dropped down slide from Mt. Truman, hopped into northern side of the woods perhaps around 3,800 feet. A little thick in a few places, but generally pretty decent going in softwoods. Hopped onto Lincoln Brook Trail (very muddy in that spot), then hopped off and climbed up Owl's Head from there - generally open mixed woods. Continued south on ridge (some blowdowns), hit new and old summits, dropped down Owl's Head Path, to Brutus, then out via Black Pond bushwhack. A few muddy spots on Lincoln Brook, Black Pond, and Lincoln Woods Trails. |
