Another fun Patrick Berry poser. I did a LOT of erasing on this one. But it ultimately came together. Took me just under two hours.

Always enjoy the Trail Mix puzzles. I had more early success at the bottom and eventually got everything filled.

Funny, just the opposite for me. Top down. You never know.

So much fun when the "trails" can help you fill out the "rows"!

Agreed! What I noticed with this one, in particular, was that if I knew the answer to a trail I could begin to enter it because some of the other trail end points or start points forced the trail to go a certain way. Nice

That was fun! And not too hard. Thanks, Patrick.

I'm a fan of these. Just the right amount of difficulty. I, too, started with the SW corner, but was also able to make headway elsewhere.
