Comments
Comments: Out and back from Ethan Pond Trailhead to Mt. Tom. Major props to whoever maintains this section. No blowdowns, dry trail, and it was easy to maneuver all day. Flies and mosquitoes were present at all times, even when the wind was blowing at the summit of Field. Saw 4 through hikers on the Ethan Pond Trail portion and then nobody until the summit of Tom. The forest between Willey and Field is quite lovely.
