 | Comments: |
Excellent hike of Mt Hayes mistakenly missed Mahoosuc trail sign after crossing small bridge over the canal. After approx .6 miles i wondered no more why the Androscoggin was flowing the opposite direction of my destination... the trail is signed but easy to miss. Great day for a 52 wav |
