Comments
Comments: Collins Path is marked with purple, Homestead Trail in red, and Mt Molly Trail in blue. I believe that all trails were pretty well marked.

This is a nice little trail system on a small mountain with a great view. The trails are well marked and easy to follow and seemed well tended to. Open hardwood forest that would be good for bushwhacking! A dusting of snow on the ground that was clumping on the spikes of those who used them (they weren't necessary at the time). A very belated congratulations to my friend to who finished their southern NH redline on this hike with me and a bunch of other lousy hikers following her (this hike isn't actually needed for SNH redlining though). Gaia had us at 3.1mi, 550ft of gain.
