| Comments: |
All trails in great shape. Some minor mud, here and there. All blowdowns easily maneuvered around. Nelson Crag seemed really steep and sapped my energy before getting to the Old Jackson Road. The trail though, while in need of some brushing in a few spots, is in great shape.
Enjoyed meeting some campers on the Great Gulf Trail section, beyond the SH intersection, and also Alex on the way up to the Great Gulf Headwall, as he is training for the single day Pemi Loop. Best of luck! |
