I spent a month at Clear Brook condos in Lincoln NH, and after encountering two young ladies looking for the trail, I did some online research and found some information that was sometimes vague, sometimes incomplete and sometimes wrong. I did some exploring and found the "lost" trail which is...

The trailhead at the bottom of the Cooleys Glen Trail is signed "Trail closed due to damage from Hurricane Irene". The trail is actually in perfect shape, with no sign of storm damage.

FR 99 is now easily drivable by any vehicle to the parking area for the New Boston trail head.

The current Long Trail Guide states that FR 99 (at least the last 1.3 miles) is passable only by high clearance vehicles. Does anyone know if this is currently the case? Is that section passable in a passenger car with careful driving? Sometimes the guide books are overly optimistic or overly...

I plan on hiking the AT from Pittsfield Rd to North Wilcox starting Apr 21. Does anyone know what the current trail conditions are (snow/ice, etc)? And can anyone who hikes that area on the weekend of Apr 19 update me on what to expect!? Thanks in advance! Fred

Can anyone tell me if the trailhead for the Reel Brook Trail to the Kinsman ridge lies within the National Forest? I'd like to know if a NF parking permit is required at that location. Thanks for any info! Fred
