Location
Wooded hillside just north of Sweet Pond State Park, Guilford, VT
Participants
Plans
Will probably try in early afternoon, making approach along state-park trail from public parking area at southwest end of (currently drained) Sweet Pond. Best-guess ETA 2 pm.
Expedition
Made it, though not at 2 pm. My engagement earlier in the day lasted a little longer than expected (very pleasantly) and I didn't start the expedition until 2:08. Arrived at state park trailhead 3:30, left trail and headed into forest about 3:45 with 400 m to go, arrived at hashpoint 3:55. Open, easily navigable mixed conifer-hardwood forest with occasional tiny creeks or muddy patches under the leaves as the only barriers.
