 | Comments: |
On the ascent to Whiteface via Blueberry Ledge one person had come down on snowshoes the day before making us break trail most of the way on fresh snow. Some spots with drifts had significant snow fall. About three quarters of the way up let 3 more people pass us to help break trail some more. Some ice on the ledges but is manageable with snowshoes,crampons or micros. Rollins trail had a significant amount of snow and was somewhat more difficult with the trees down and the trail not totally broken out. Trails are all broken out now though.. |
