Trail: Blueberry Ledge Trail, Rollins Trail, Dicey's Mill Trail
Conditions: Dry Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable
“I had fun with the scrambles on Blueberry. I'm 5'4" tall and was able to find my way up by staying left, then right, then far left on the major scrambles. Nice views from Whiteface south peak. Filtered water at the tent site near Passaconaway. A few minor muddy and wet areas especially down low on Diceys. A log bridge kept my feet dry on the stream crossing. Snow and ice are gone, my spikes went for a ride. Overall, trails are well maintained.”
Trail: Blueberry Ledge Trail, Blueberry Ledge Cutoff, Rollins Trail, Dicey's Mill Trail
Conditions: Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Standing/Running Water on Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable, Snow/Ice - Monorail (Stable), Leaves - Significant/Slippery, Snow/Ice - Small Patches
“A beautiful day for a walk in the woods. Met TJ in the parking lot and decided to hike the Blueberry Ledge Cutoff which neither of us had hiked before. What a nice trail! It was covered in leaves so I was happy to be going up instead of down it. Blueberry Ledge is wonderful, as always. There is some icy monorail going down Whiteface which we were able to avoid by walking next to it. The snowy sections were grippy; We both had spikes but didn't use them. Hopefully the rain this week will degrade the ice even more. Headed up Passaconaway was wet in spots. I didn't use the loop as I could see a deep monorail and didn't want to bother with it. Dicey's Mill is fast.”

“Oliverian, Passaconaway Cutoff, and Square Ledge all bare/wet/dry. Walden Trail had a dusting to 1/2” of snow in the morning but it was gone on the way back. From the view spur near the Passaconaway summit, to the summit, and down about 3/10ths of a mile on Dicey’s had minor stable monorails and some icy patches. Bare/wet/dry from there until about 7/10ths before Whiteface on Rollins. Almost continuous, varied heights of monorail to the Whiteface summit, mostly stable, and with a few bare patches.”

28-year-old female hiker from Fall River, Massachusetts, hiking with her dog
Elizabeth O'Neill, 28, fell into a brook while making a crossing on a multi-peak hike from Mt. Tripyramid to Mt. Whiteface to Mt. Passaconaway, saturating her backpack and all equipment. She attempted to set up her tent on the Dicey's Mill Trail but had difficulty and called 911 due to increasing rain and concern for her safety.
