| Comments: |
In contrast to this morning's Mt Cabot jaunt (up to 6" of fluffy new snow), there was but 1/2 - 1" of new snow over much ice on the lower mile plus. Higher up, conditions were less icy but kept Microspikes on just in case. No problems with route finding between Starr King and Waumbek; just a lovely stroll in the wintery woods. |
