The lower portion of the trail to Boundary Bald Mountain
Route: Trail Road, blue blazed trail
Lower portion of the Blue Trail from Trail Road had some areas of running water (trail is essentially a rocky ditch in this area), as well as some mudbogs. Upper portion had some slippery rock, but was otherwise dry. Also noted another blue blazed trail emerging on the summit ridge, signed for Notch Road.
Excellent views from the summit ridge, even with rain showers passing through.
