 | Comments: |
Nice shorter hike today to knock off one of the NE 100 highest. Trails were dry with occasional minor mud. LLT and KRT are both heavily eroded and have some areas of tricky footing. On our return we circled around the Lake and over to the hut. The hut was pretty busy with many people down by the lake. Many more people making their way up to the hut as we were heading down. Surprised by the descent views from near the summit of Northeast Cannon Ball. |
