|
| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Not as busy as expected after seeing Crawford, Ethan Pond, Davis Path and Nancy Pond trailheads packed more than I've ever seen them before. Road fine but narrow in spots so keep an eye out for wider spots if meeting oncoming traffic. |
|
| Surface Conditions: |
Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Wet/Slippery Rock, Standing/Running Water on Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable |
|
| Recommended Equipment: |
|
|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
Easily rock hopped with poles being helpful for balance as I needed to take one long step to keep feet dry. Lowest crossing on the old trail (section rerouted near jct. of Signal Ridge & Carrigain Notch trails) required two steps in 2-3" water. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
One 8" blowdown right near the well below the summit. New signage stating 5.3 mile distance at the top; didn't notice what sign said at bottom. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Saw a few out today. Brook and puddles, flows probably enough water for them currently. |
|
| Bugs: |
A few out but no problem. |
