 | Comments: |
Black pond bushwhack is bare. Monorail on Lincoln Brook is pretty stable except for when it is very unstable! Lincoln Brook is also about 1/3 bare and pretty wet/muddy in sections. I did entire hike with light traction (Hillsound Free Steps) although I carried snowshoes. Complete snow cover above 3000 ft. |
