Comments
Comments: The entire notch was in the clouds, so there was no denying that the trail was very wet. Cascades on FJ trail were running strong. Stopped in to visit the new shelter at Kinsman Pond. It's beautiful! This was my first time across the Cannonballs and enjoyed it immensely. What lovely forest!
