 | Comments: |
The Tom Wiggin Trail has the best sign in the Whites - "Not Recommended. Steep And Loose." - but it was a solid challenge and we got lucky because it was moist and firm after previous evening's rains. Other trails are well-traveled and in solid shape. Dicey's Mill water crossing was actually pretty low. |
