 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
There are 2-3ish spots in front of Algonquin. The road is particularly bad for WMNF roads, but imo I still think it was easier than Success Pond Road. I have trail tires and good clearance, so it was no problem. Our other car spot car is practically on the ground so there were some interesting sounds there. Just don't bring your sunday ice cream sports car. |

 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Hiking partner hit his head like 3 times on easy-under trees. Nothing super tough to get around though. Blazes fading because it's a wilderness area, however trail is always obvious. |

Really great car spot! I'd say this is the way to do this one. Smarts brook is so mellow, perfect down. Algonquin gets the HR going but I didn't find it hard! Pictures of the part that makes the T25 are below, but really this was probably the easiest elective for me yet. |
