Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: No issues today, all rock-hoppable and manageable. 
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: East of Outlook Trail, as you make your way toward Mahoosuc Trail, there are several hundred linear feet of bog bridges that are in very poor condition and in need of replacement.  
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: I don't think this day's trail conditions would make for happy dogs.

Comments
Comments: Due to the recent rains the trails were wet and in some sections very muddy.

Stunning views from both the Outlook and the summit.

Be prepared for one chimney on Mahoosuc Trail between the junction of Success and the summit. About a 15 foot vertical drop/climb.

We were a bit behind schedule and didn't take the time to look for the airplane wreckage.
