Trail Conditions: No problematic trail conditions, maybe some slippery leaves. Ice in shallow standing water above treeline.
Special Equipment Required: none
Comments: Optional - The Mossy Brook Trail was new to me. Beautiful area. If camping were allowed on Monadnock, this would be the place to stay. Monadnock has summit stewards up there now who hike up there, stay the day, and tell you what they know about geology, history, alpine plants, etc. Pretty interesting. Ravens and horned larks along summit route.
