Comments
Comments: Trails very nice today with extended dry spell. Lots of mossy rocks on Kate Sleeper and Downes Brook trails which will be slick once wet again. Also section on Oliverian Brook Tr. could be swampy with rain last few days. Great views today and lots of nice walking. We could have avoided road walk by using ski trails if we had researched this prior to hike.
