 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
I was the 7th car in the Ferncroft lot when I hit the trail at 5:45 am. Those before me must have spent the night up at Camp Rich, as I silk blazed Blueberry Ledge and Rollins. When I finished shortly before noon, there were only 2 spots left in the lot. |

 | Bugs: |
Mosquitos lower down. Black flies at the summits. I kept moving, so they weren't too bad. A morning breeze kept the ledges mercifully clear of bugs. |

 | Comments: |
The last good view on the hike is at the intersection of the Blueberry Ledge, McCrillis, and Rollins trails, 0.1 mile before the summit of Whiteface.
Between the summits, I passed two pairs of backpackers on the Kate Sleeper Loop, but didn't see anyone else until I was descending Dicey's Mill. A pair of German hikers complimented me on my jersey, and a trail runner exclaimed "1 pm!" (kickoff) as he passed me. Nice to see some World Cup spirit! |
