Comments
Comments: Trails were basically snow/ice free with a couple of very tiny, avoidable patches on Shannon Brook. Still some significant mud/standing water in the usual two areas on the Bald Knob Cutoff (prior to the jointing area). Otherwise, not overly wet or muddy.

Nice sunny afternoon with temperatures sitting around 60F.
