Comments
Comments: Great day out hiking a few side trails of the Long Trail. Besides the busy Sterling Pond Trail and Long Trail, most of the other trails were quiet. I have to keep reminding myself of how slippery VT rocks can be! Almost took 2 good falls because the rocks didn't look slippery....but were like ice! Beautiful day to be on the trails, seeing some places I hadn't been in many years and loving it.
