I broke out from Hogan road up Hayes, across to Cascade and to about 0.5mi north of Cascade. Trail was unbroken and varied from shin to thigh deep. The trail isn't super well packed because I was solo, but it's as good as I could get it. By the time I got back to Hayes another group had come through and properly packed out the trail. It looked like they'd come up vi the AT and down Mahoosic trail. Lots of moose tracks out and about!! |
