This was a roll of the dice that paid off big time. I had checked the weather and knew that there was a chance of rain but that never happened. The rain last night made everything wet and I was hoping that the ledges would have dried out by the time I reached them. That sort of happened. Some were dry and some were wet but I have done this trail wet before so it was fine. The trail was wet anywhere that was covered by the trees. The rocks in those sections were also wet. By the time I reached Dicey's Mill to ascend Passaconaway the trail wasn't too wet but the rocks on the steep sections were still wet. Careful footing was needed here. I saw my first hikers of the day as I descended. Dicey's Mill was damp and had great footing and made for a fast descent. This turned out to be a really nice day and the clouds were delightfully moody. |
