Comments
Comments: An overnight across the Bonds, to Zealand, and then the Twins and down to Galehead and out past 13 Falls. I hammocked off the Twinway a few hundred feet off trail.

Lots of mud, mostly avoidable but not as avoidable on Franconia Brook Trail. Nice weather on Saturday, not as nice on Sunday, but a great trip!
