Comments
Comments: The Elwell trail was particularly difficult to follow near the power lines. There are numerous places where blazes/cairns would make the trail easy to follow if traversing East to West but not when going West to East. Maybe somewhere around 15 signficant blowdowns.

Up Mowglis from Sculptured Rocks Rd then East on the Ellwell trail all the way to New Found Lake. I thought it might be muddy but it really wasn't bad. Overgrown in several areas especially near the power lines. Overall, it was an interesting hike with a lot of nice views along the way. Big & Little Sugarloaf are worth the views of Newfound any time!
