Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Where do I start? The Cohos is severely overgrown in many sections at the northern end. Several of these over grown sections hide old blowdowns. And speaking of blow downs, for the 26 miles I hiked, there were plenty. I understand that COVID has prevented trail work but, a lot of this is way more than COVID has created.  
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: I would not take a dog on the Cohos Trail period.  
Bugs
Bugs: Yup... I got the bites to prove it. Part of the journey.  
Lost and Found
Lost and Found: NA 
  
Comments
Comments: I had set out to do 12 days on the Cohos. Only made it 3 before I called it quits. The trail is just too overgrown and hard to follow for us. Not our type of hike. Not even type 2 fun to be had. I learned a ton though and I am glad I at least tried.
