Comments
Comments: My third trip to the Hancocks, Buffalo Andy's first. Showers most of the day. Chilling wind at North Hancock. Massive bootsucking mudhole on the Ridge Link. Tricky to stay on the logs that have been thrown in it. Saw a moose on the Cedar Brook Trail on our descent. Not too many other hikers for a Saturday due to poor weather.
