Trails in great shape considering Irene. Seems the Kinsman Notch area was spared. Someone has recently worked on the trail but no signs of recent blowdowns. The blowdowns since my last visit have all been taken care of. There is one possibably ne blowdown at 3600' just before you get to the ridge. Esay to duck under. Nice views today even with some haze and clouds. |
