 | Comments: |
Trail is in good condition other than blowdowns. A little mud here and there but easily avoided. No snow and ice except 2 tiny patches just off the trail that has probably melted by now. Trail is mostly dry and I wore non waterproof trail runners. There's a few small sections of dry slippery leaves but really not an issue other than slowing down a little on the descent. Lovely views on the ledges about a half mile down from the summit heading down the Mahoosuc Trail towards Gorham. |
