Comments
Comments: Excellent spring day out on a great trail. Enjoyed the steep ascent up to Noon with nice views along the way. Between Jennings Spur and Sandwich Dome, there were sections with a good amount of water on the trail, mostly avoidable. Encountered a couple handfuls of blowdowns that required maneuvering, along with four or five spots of moose droppings. Drakes Brook was a nice cruise.
