Comments
Comments: Mixture of wet and dry leaves on Blueberry Ledge trail .. first two sections of the ledges were fairly dry but once we hit 3700 ft the ledges had a coating of ice so we put on traction and kept them on for the traverse to Passaconaway and finally took them off around 3400 ft... very solid trail down few leaves easy walking until Tom Wiggins cutoff ..trail covered with a thick coatIng of leaves making it slipper so we had to be careful as it was getting dark.

We had the trails to ourselves .. didn’t see a soul.
