 | Comments: |
Beautiful day for Bonds traverse. Great views, especially from Bondcliff. Zealand to Lincoln Woods is a very long car spot though. Next time, we'll probably try the out-and-back from Lincoln Woods to avoid retrieving the car placed so far away. Especially since the trails are so easy with such good footing on the southern end. The most difficult section is the 1-mile ascent to the summit of Mt. Bond from Bondcliff.
