Comments
Comments: Beautiful day for trail work. I'm glad the road is finally open.
Not too much damage this year, just surprised at how many small spruce were leaning into the trail.
A short patch of snow just north of the height of land (2600 ft) on Carrigain Notch trail. Just enough for a small snowman (probably the last of the year).
