Comments
Comments: Gorgeous choice for spring run off! No difficult water crossings. You get the effect without the strain! Small remnants of ice remain on the trail descending to water's edge, may be gone by the time you go there. Were considering getting the rest of the trail (for tracing) but didn't like the looks of the rushing water and rotted snow on the other side of the brook.
