|

|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Trails were in good condition. No blowdowns. Blazing a little spotty but it's fairly easy to follow the trail without them. Old Bridle Trail down had 2-3 spots where it would be easy to make a wrong turn so pay close attention. |

None surprisingly! |

Weather was perfect. Not too warm, not too hot. No wind. No rain. No thunderstorm. Only problem.... no view :( The entire Franconia Ridge Trail was socked in. Weather forecast called for in the clear conditions. Just goes to show the weather forecast isn't always right! Greenleaf Hut open with snacks inside. Pleasantly surprised to learn they also served quesadillas and burritos! |
