Comments
Comments: Great day on the Wildcats. We only saw 5 other hikers; 2 coming up D and 3 at jct. of 19-Mile and Carter Dome Trails. All trails in nice condition except for some avoidable erosion on lower part of 19-Mile Brook. Thanks to the 2 gentlemen who picked us up near the MW Autoroad and saved us many steps of roadwalking!
