Straightforward trail and had I felt better would have been enjoyable. Views going up to Whiteface were really wonderful and yes, the Blueberry Ledge trail has some rock scrambling that can be a bit daunting but taking it step by step it is doable. Going down Dicey was a very nice trail. Met a ham radio operator at the top of Passaconaway with a lot of equipment participating in Summits on the Air so very interesting conversation about that whole deal. Just a handful people to see sporadically through the day.
Also really liked what I saw for the camping area (formerly known as Camp Rich). Totally will go back up to stay there.
