Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes: Mt. Clinton Rd was open, and covered with a thin layer of frozen slush (mostly melted when we left). Passable from Rt 302 side, and I haven't mounted snow tires yet. One culvert blocked about halfway between Rt 302 and Edmands Path. Water flowing over the road, only a few inches deep.

Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: The bridge over Abenaki brook is displaced, and the stream channel has moved. Exposed rocks were ice coated, easy crossing with stepping on submerged rocks. Could be hazardous at high water levels.
