My favorite CT founder last weekend

If you see this man on the trail … get out of the way. He does trail work like a 25 year old. We re-blazed the Percy Loop trail red up to the campsite. Then blazed yellow and red from the campsite to the peaks trail. On Saturday we formally opened the new Trio Trail. Blazing of the Pond brook falls trail and Trio trail is done. This picture is from the Nash Stream Road end of the now non CT part of the Percy Loop trail. So many years this vision and dream of moving the CT off the road has fina [READ MORE…]

Trail Notes 8-6-16

TRAIL NOTES:
The Trio Trail is now 99 percent complete, signed, blazed, and very easy to follow. A few logs have to be cut out of the trail as yet, and some minor tweaking needs to be carried out in several spots, but the pathway is easy to navigate and is a great pleasure to be out on now. The views out to big Sugarloaf and its neighboring peaks are a delight.
