 | Comments: |
We hiked the two Hancocks starting from the hairpin turn on the Kanc then continued out Cedar Brook trail to the Pemi East trail and took that back to Lincoln Woods. I think there were two minor blowdowns along the ridge between North and South but everything else in good shape for the standard Hancock loop. There were several muddy areas on Cedar Brook near the height of land. Two were difficult to get around but the rest of the trail is very easy footing. |
