Found a metal canteen at an outlook on Rollins Trail - black with a skull and crossbones - couldn't find its owner on the way down, so left it at the kiosk at Ferncroft. |

Great fall day - just wanted to add a few things to the other reports from this weekend ... Tom Wiggin Trail clearly sees less use than the other trails in the area - it's very steep in a few places but still a great trail. So wonderful to run into Mark, Alison, John and Pepper on the ridge!! |
