I'll have to spend a day in there before we do the next (4th) edition of the Southern NH Guide. That is a nice area in there.<br /><br />SteveSteve Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16403760631302934834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814464431995035927.post-75691040154504723712012-05-18T08:34:38.769-04:002012-05-18T08:34:38.769-04:00Steve,

I've hiked both and once you skirt where they logged (and did good cleanup), trails are very nice. The new steward for the forest has been hard at work and trails are better marked than ever before.<br />Heading back to Little Pond this am and will take notes if you want specifics. My husband GPSed trail 2 weeks ago when we hiked it.Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02580945687127359530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814464431995035927.post-85378369796465001032011-10-21T00:06:36.747-04:002011-10-21T00:06:36.747-04:00Thanks for the update, Roy.

We took these trails out of the 3rd edition SNHTG because of the impending logging operation - the SPNHF folks weren't sure what the trails would be like afterwards. Sounds like they came through OK.<br /><br />SteveSteve Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16403760631302934834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814464431995035927.post-13150986997696427942011-10-16T16:54:52.074-04:002011-10-16T16:54:52.074-04:00Hiked this area today, a few comments:

This came out at a huge log yard farther up the main gravel road from where the yellow trail left<br />-rsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814464431995035927.post-16292565015713465582009-06-11T16:31:02.371-04:002009-06-11T16:31:02.371-04:00This is a great description and review of the hike...This is a great description and review of the hike. I hiked this mountain as a kid, actually as a camper at Mowglis. I have always wanted to hike it again, and will have try it now with my family.
