Comments
Comments: a great day in the woods. bare booted to summit of Hale,a few inches of snow from last night obscuring some foot prints up Fire Wardens trail. No such foot prints on Hale Brook trail until we met some ascenders 5 minutes into the descent. Put on the microspikes. Maybe could have bare booted that but better safe than sorry.
