01 2026-06 Preparation for a third trip

This was my third trip in 20 days. This time, I knew that I want to revisit famous Mahoosuc Mile in Maine (ME) without going the entire 30 mi section between NH and route 26 in ME.  To do that I needed to use a Bull Branch Rd. that locals are using to go to Mahoosuc directly. To form a loop I would either need to go via official Wright Trail towards Appalachian Trail (AT) or via Mile Notch Rd. (that is partially marked as a private road) towards Grafton Loop Trai and then to AT.  The final decision was postponed till the day of arrival.
