Trail Maintenance Notes

Comments
Comments: Really nice day to hike the Hancocks. Trails in pretty good shape overall, although we cleared a couple of dozen smaller blowdowns and had to leave a few spots (see notes above). Thanks to the other couple with a saw that got the remaining blowdowns we were going to get on the way out! Fun day out with Ethan, Eric and Claudette!
