| Comments: |
Beautiful bluebird day for a trip to Cabot for my son's list. Trails mostly in good shape, with a few muddy areas low on Bunnell Notch trail and wet sections higher up due to current rain. Some short sections of Bunnell Notch Trail in the middle section were flowing streams, but it was easy to avoid getting wet. Trail dry higher up on Kilkenny Ridge Trail, with only the smallest patches of ice and snow hanging around in the shady places. Cabot cabin looked to be in good shape inside and out. |
