I did not seen any hikers on ellen and abe but there were two groups ahead of me going up to Killington. Snow was wet with a little ice forming underneath once you cross the last big bridge. I think I was the only one to make the top because I had spikes. The last 100 feet is a killer. You might be able to swing through the trees coming down but even with spikes it requires focus. Did not need snowshoes. |
