 | Comments: |
Gorge Brook trail is in good shape except for the couple washout spots from Irene. Carriage Rd in good shape until junction with Snapper on the descent, then obviously much less traveled. Since it's less-traveled and lower elevation, it was quite muddy (oh, and the fact that it rained many inches in the last 36 hours probably didn't help).
Hurricane trail was the same - no mud pits so big that you can't find a way around them, but they were there. Still great to be out on new trails for all of us, at times, today. It never truly rained on us. Drizzled/fogged a little and cleared as the day went on. Thanks, Ali, for getting us out there despite the forecast! |
