Can someone give me info on this new trail? I read about it but doesn't give much more info than that. How long, how steep, approximate hiking time? :confused:
What a day!....All seasons, starting with a tee shirt and ended on top with a winter coat. Rained some, wind blew and herds and herds of people on the trail with their dogs. I saw every bread with every temperment. What a day in the mountains. Trails are in excellent condition with no...
Beautiful day for a long ride and a short hike. Nicely packed trail. I used snowshoes all the way. Great hike for families with small children. Spent the rest of the day at Mountainman in Old Forge shopping.....:eek:
Great day for a short and enjoyable hike. Fallen leaves covered the trail so it was easy to get off track and easier to go ankle deep into the mud. The tower was much bigger than my last but made it to the top. Facing my fears ya know:eek:.
No special equipment.
Trail conditions were excellent. There are alot of ups and downs on this hike. Views were fantastic even with a cloudy day. The colors were beautiful. The ridge is just a wonderful hike with views of almost everything including vermont peaks.:)
Trail was in excellent condition.
No special equipment needed.
Views from the Tower were spectacular. Color at its peak.
Cold in the tower but wonderful day for a hike.:D
Reached the Garden just in time. There were just three spots left. This turned out to be my lucky day all around:). Weather was perfect and I was ready to complete my 9 year journey.
Left the parking lot at 5:50 reaching JBL at 7:15. By 9:30 I had reached Slant Rock and decided to take my...
Pilot Knob trail.
Trail conditions are very good. Seemed to be alot of trees down since last time I was there but not on the trails.
No special equipment needed except maybe a dish for blueberry. Can't believe they are still out and plentiful. MMMMMM:D
My intent was to finish my 46's with HaBaSa but changed my mind (yes I'm a woman) at the intersection at Haystack and Basin. I always wanted to finish on Haystack and thought it would be nice to do it by itself, leaving enough time to celebrate and spent lots of time on the summit.
Anyway we...
Trails in excellent condition. Never seen trails so dry. Was dreading Saddleback but not as bad as I anticipated.
Equipment: Poles and maybe gloves. Didn't carry gloves but could see how they could be helpful.
Trail is in good condition, a few muddy spots but that the norm. Brooks are easily crossed.
No special Equipment needed.
Blueberrys are plentiful near the summit:cool:

Trails are extremely muddy from Upper Works to Summits. Got pretty tired of puddle jumping, rock hopping and boot sucking :eek: most of the weekend due to the rain from last week.
I can't imagine doing these without gators or poles. Water is plentiful and...
Trail conditions were great. Stopped briefly for pictures at Rainbow Falls. Only one small blowdown between Indian Head and Fish Hawk. Returned via Gill Brook where we realized just how bad the blackflies were. Stopped a few times but not for long. Water was much lower than I expected. Great...
Some muddy spots but common for this hike. Nice breeze kept the bugs away but when it wasn't blowing, I ate a few....:eek:
No special equipment needed.
Conditions were great considering it's bug season.
