 | Comments: |
Beautiful trails in good condition on the Sandwich Dome Loop. Any blowdown’s were easily passable. Some good Trail Blazers already cut or chopped some. Trail was mostly dry. Brook was running great but passable on the two times I had to cross Drakes Brook. Bog Bridges are sketchy but still standing. Good thing- needed to use two or passage would have been difficult. Views north and east were outstanding from Jennings and Sandwich Dome. Could easily see Tecumseh, Osceolas , Tripyramids, Canon, Whiteface, and Washington. |
