I then hiked back to the connector and up Caribou to the open ledges and back again. A nice three hour jaunt. Incidentally the Dynamite Brook road is now quite smooth all the way to parking "lot".Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328460299076687507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4761031954085141212.post-17352542240566113352013-10-10T15:40:49.447-04:002013-10-10T15:40:49.447-04:00You are welcome- let us know what you think of the...You are welcome- let us know what you think of the hike.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13587746860313874086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4761031954085141212.post-23195401217713223432013-10-10T14:38:50.911-04:002013-10-10T14:38:50.911-04:00Hi John, Thanks for the clarification and the CD. ...Hi John, Thanks for the clarification and the CD.

The other end you are at the trail head when you park.

Not too hopeful as there is nothing in Perrin's book that mentions it, nor is it on any of my antique AMC maps.Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15328460299076687507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4761031954085141212.post-34301720285954036462013-08-24T14:39:30.308-04:002013-08-24T14:39:30.308-04:00Hi Chris- It may be a worse road.

Solution, then is to do it from the highway ( I think 182) at the other end- no bad roads- off road parking.<br /><br />How did you make out with "Pathmakers" ?Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13587746860313874086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4761031954085141212.post-65576798930044978652013-08-24T13:14:07.298-04:002013-08-24T13:14:07.298-04:00Hi John, How far is the trailhead from the road? ...Hi John, How far is the trailhead from the road?
