Comments
Comments: Trails were damp in places, possibly from a pop up shower, and some ledges (in particular, the scramble on Rock Cave Trail) were very slippery.

Rock Cave Trail is not an official trail, is not signed, and can be vague in places (particularly up high).

Warm afternoon with temperatures in the 80s. Very humid in the Brook Trail valley, but not as humid higher up (possibly from drier air starting to arrive). Plenty of folks out, but not conga-line busy.
