| Comments: |
Took Asquam Ridge Tr. up. Nice, gradual, well graded trail. Might be muddy in wetter weather (lots of drainage work planned for future). One short section at bottom with huge blowdown and washout area near Baker Brook causing some detours (if you take road out for start on Asquam instead of dropping down to start of Gorge Brook Tr. for your start you will avoid this area). As mentioned in water crossing section there is 15-25 yard section of Gorge Brook Tr. in the brook now. Easily rockhopped today but could be interesting with higher water. Trails mostly dry today making an easy graded loop. |
