One very small birch blowdown just below the top of Mack coming down toward Round Pond. Easy stepover, but the small foldup saw took care of that quickly. |

 | Bugs: |
The black flies are out, although seemingly non-biting yet. However, the temp was just around 60 or so, with a nice breeze most of the way to keep the bugs at bay. |

 | Comments: |
Trails are in good shape, overall, with some short wet/muddy sections in low/level spots.
Nice dry, sunny day for all nine of us OTHH to enjoy. Larry completed his Belknap 12, so he can get the patch. |
