Comments
Comments: The Great Gulf Trail (4.5 miles in) is in good condition, the water crossings where rock hopabale but would be tougher with any significant rain. The Wamsutta Trail is steep in spots with very rough footing and expect it to be wet and icy for most days from here on out until a big snow storm. Alpine Garden and Nelson Crag are in great shape, very visible cairns to help lead the way. Tuckerman Ravine was wet and had running water in spots. From here on out expect for the most part 'Shoulder Season' conditions the higher up you go - rime ice, wet conditions, ice, ground cover snow.
