Cheshire Harbor Trail down Gould, through the cut off back to Cheshire
We went up Cheshire trail with light traction. No problems. Came down Gould, light traction, but snow shoes would have made it easier. We went through the cut off on Gould to Cheshire, by the ravine, if you do this you will need crampons. Very steep, and icy. I was slipping with my micro spikes. Wishing I remembered my crampons. |
