 | Comments: |
Bald Mountain near Lake Willoughby. First portion of trail (grassy logging road) was soggy. Trail proper started off rather muddy (not deep, but plentiful). Actual climb had slippery roots and rocks, as well as some water running down it. Excellent views from fire tower (didn't notice any views from the ground). |
