Trails in good condition. Some short stretches with minor erosion especially at the foot of the North Tripyramid summit cone. One large tree high above the path near the Pine Bend Brook trailhead. Easy to walk under now but may be a problem in the snow. One tree to duck under uphill from the first brook crossing.
Lots of by-passes to avoid slippery mossy slanted rock ledges high up on North Tripyramid. |

 | Comments: |
The views were limited due to the hazy conditions. The nearby mountains could be seen from outlooks at each summit.
Lots of hikers on the Tripyramid peaks today. Ascents were made by Sabbaday Brook Trail, Mt Tripyramid up the north slide, and Pine Bend Brook trail. I did not meet anyone who hiked via the Kate Sleeper Trail. |
