 | Comments: |
SLA officially reopened the Rattlesnakes and Squam Range trails late last week.
Loop was mostly dry this afternoon. Still some slippery leaves in places from last fall.
Hepatica near the top of West Rattlesnake is on its way out. Some trailing arbutus in bloom on the ridge.
Beautiful summer-like afternoon with blue skies and temperatures around 70. |
