 | Comments: |
Near perfect weather conditions today above tree-line. Met two different groups doing a traverse and two who had just completed the Great Gulf Tr for their 20th of the T25. The Boundary Trail was an absolute pleasure as a way to connect this loop back to Jefferson Notch Road. Lined with moss and ferns, bridged through some wet mossy areas and passing through a beautiful mixed forest with huge old Silver Birch. The Boundary Trail was a pleasant surprise to round out this 12 mile loop with 4550 gain, on an absolutely spectacular day. |
