 | Comments: |
mostly dry trail except for the standard short bits of mud and wet trail. some wet ledge in spots.
beavers have flooded the trail for a short stretch near the dam on oliverian brook trail.
i like carrying a water filter for this hike to top off along the way (the small brook below passaconaway being a favored spot).
such a great day to be out hiking. cool temps and nice views. very quiet up there today. one of my favorite loop hikes. |
