Comments
Comments: Knocked out a few of these little trails today, and was happy there wasn't more snow, but was somewhat dismayed that there was still some. Mostly between Lila's Ledge and Brad's Bluff, and in small patches alongside the brook through George's Gorge. Other than the sticks and blowdowns, the trails were in decent shape, and lightly used. Great views from the various ledge perches.
