Comments
Comments: 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!!
