 | Comments: |
Another trip out to Paugus for a USFS wilderness monitoring visit that was supposed to happen last year but didn't due to operator error.
These trails were mainly dry with some minor areas of wet ledge and mud. Nice views as always from the SW ledges with a stiff wind that definitely had an autumn chill to it. Foliage is slowly starting to change.
I didn't see anyone else all day. :) |
