| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
We started at the south terminus of the wapack in MA and left a carn on the north side of RT. 123, across from Windblow XC ski area.
At the end of the hike, we were informed that the section of trail just north of Barrett was closed due to ski operations. However, no signs indicated such; we were told there should have been a sign atop Barret, but we did not see anything. |

| Comments: |
Many parts of this trail had unbroken snow, while others had bare spots. Snowshoes are still needed in many sections. The trail was easy to find. Very nice views.
Thank you Emma for coming up for this traverse. |
