 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
McGrill Trail requires some maintenance, although it is a not well-traversed trail from the lack of compaction on the trail. It is well-marked with only a few deep muddy spots, downed trees across the trail, and brush over the trail.
McCrill Path is currently being redone for 0.25 miles. Trees with red markings highlight the path and should be followed until you hit the trail again. You have to bushwhack for the 0.25 miles and might get scraped up without pants. It is navigable with the well-marked trees. |

 | Comments: |
Other Notes: Rollins Trail between Whiteface and Passaconaway is currently very muddy and slippery at sections. Water has not fully drained off from the rain last week. One should be careful will climbing up and down granite faces on the trail from wet conditions. Overall, trail conditions on the 15 mile loop were good! Just be aware of muddy conditions currently on every trail. If you want 5 miles of solitude along a creek or river to Whiteface, I recommend McCrill Trail! |
