| Comments: |
Trails were generally pretty muddy (leaves covering mud and standing water, making for some unpleasant surprises). Nice foliage.
Top of bog brook confusing from irene...herd path leads downstream to washed down bog bridge...not where you want to go (trail instead crosses and traverses swamp). |
