Date of Hike: 27 Sep 2014

Trails Used: Bog Brook Trail - Wild River Trail - Rainbow Trail - CarterMoriah Trail - Wildcat River Trail

Trail Conditions: Mostly very good. Some brushy, prickly overgrowth on the lower Rainbow Trail where topped-off birches let a lot of light in. All of the several water crossings were rock-hops.

Special Equipment Required: Poles helpful for the water crossings.


Comments: The Rainbow Trail is excellent - great views in all directions from the open knob at 4000 ft. Carter Notch area at or very near peak color this weekend.
