Whiteface in the Belknap Range. Trail hadn't been used since previous storm. No sign of any snowmobile use up high either. Broke out trail with snowshoes - somewhat decently packed, but still some gaps between steps. Maybe half a foot of new snow - a few inches of sugar snow, then a crust, then an inch or two of powder. |
