Dark Hollow Pond: There were indeed many forks, but I think we we basically along the right lines. At times, we crossed laterally among the different paths just to see if there was a blaze *anywhere*, and while there were occasional very old and faded blue ones, we never saw yellow.

Blue Hill: There are old blue blazes around the Blue Hill area that aren't the Blue Hill Trail (as noted above), but I did find the trail exactly where I expected it to be (using the map to determine where it ought to be was the only reason I found it), and then it was labeled at the Skyline intersection. Didn't notice any relevant blazes on the trail itself

Cascade: That is the Cascade -- it starts at the eastern trailhead of the Cross Fells. I was there again today and found that it joins the RC sooner than we realized. The intersection wasn't obvious in the dark since the blazes are the same color.

Mine is MDC-era, but the ones posted at the Fells itself don't have any more info on them. Some have the Bike Loop colored in, but they aren't newly-designed. I want to join up with the FotF and see about getting the maps updated, putting up road signs indicating trail crossings, etc.
