 | Comments: |
Blueberry Ledge Trail was broken out to Whiteface's False summit. We broke trail from there through most of the Rollins trail until another hiking party passed us and broke trail to the junction with Passaconaway's summit and dicey's mill trail out. By the time we reached the junction for the summit of Passaconaway it was getting late so we decided against breaking it out. |
