Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Drakes Brook is high but passable...I started up Drakes Brook Trail thinking there were three crossings, I either missed two of them or the trail relocation wasn't obvious. The crossing on Sandwich Mountain Trail on the way down was slippery but easily passable. 
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: All trails were in pretty great shape.

Comments
Comments: Had a really nice morning on the trails today, all trails in great shape considering it's the end of the "3 seasons"...no clouds and views extensive including the snow-kissed Presidentials and Franconias. I thought it was best to do Drakes up and Sandwich down due to the vertical in the ravine from Drakes, but honestly doing this semi-loop either way would be great.
