This was the 3rd and 4th peak of the day, after Trestle Brook Mtn and Jobbers Brook North Peak. I parked at the HOL on Perley Road, 0.2 miles from the border swath. I went up in a section of hardwoods to Dube Brook Mtn, and found the register damp and moldy, and the pencil wet and unusable. I replaced the pencil and wet bag, signed in the best I could and did an OAB to Greeley Brook Peak on the swath. I was able to avoid the large areas of mud and standing water, but this would be swamp-mageddon in spring. The actual path is scenic and very easy to traverse, not rocky and rough terrain like it is further north. I startled 2 moose simultaneously, one on the US side, the other on the Canadian side; both were in the woods and very close to the swath, but each one ran off in the opposite direction before I even realized they were there. |
