Trail Conditions: Mostly dry trail with some short muddy stretches. The MCC has done a huge amount of work building new switchbacks and rock stairs and blocking the old, straight-up fire warden's trail. Some snow patches above 2,700ft, especially under blow downs. Numerous blow downs and snapped tree tops in the trail. Black flies were just waking up, but not biting yet.

Comments: Great views to Bigelow, Moosehead Lake, and snowy Katahdin from the fire tower ladder. Looks like a new trail is being cut off the south side of the summit...
