The upper 1.1 of Oliverian Brook is very hobble-brushy down to its junction with Square Ledge Branch. Hobblebush again the culprit on the upper 1.1 of Square Ledge. All other trails in great shape.

Comments
Comments: A good spin around some of the lesser used Wonalancet Trails. Buggy, hot, and humid. Walden was its usual rough self, as was Wonalancet Range below the Short Cut. Very quiet, only saw a guy and two boys on Old Mast down low when I started.
