 | Bugs: |
Lots of mosquitoes, especially in the wet, muddy and dry parts of Old Clough road just before the junction with the Dave Roberts Quarry Trail. Didn't need a bug net, handled with DEET spray. CHECK FOR TICKS! i pulled 7 ticks off of me when I got home. Large ticks, not deer. |

 | Comments: |
Make sure that you follow the trail about 0.2 miles before the Dave Roberts Quarry Trail Junction. The road turns sharply to the left, but the trail actually heads into the brush on the right. It is not well worn and there are no trail markers so you need to be careful. |
