 | Comments: |
I was over optimistic thinking I could ski to 13 falls. Lincoln woods is great for skiing right now and there were others out. Franconia brook however, is rough with current thin cover. About 1/2mi from Lincoln Brook intersection, I dropped the skis and went to bareboots. Long walk for the falls. Not the day of skiing I envisioned, but since I was that far and needed the redline, I walked to the falls. Cool views of some cliffs and slides on that side of Owl's Head. No real need for snowshoes or traction right now. |
