| Bugs: |
Yes. In the morning, not so bad. In the evening, bad. The lower part, especially as you return to the Flat Mountain Pond trail, where it's very obviously wet, has flies that just about dive bomb you. |

| Comments: |
I took some time off from the Whites, because after rushing here and there to finish my winter 48, I felt a little whipped. First I get back to the Whites, I pick a fall-line trail. Duh. But more plusses than minuses. View was too hazy to see much, but a day in the mountains is better than a day at work.
A more detailed trip report is on my blog as always. Share and enjoy. |
