Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes: I parked on the north side of the Kanc shortly before a State plow guy came through--there were a couple inches of new snow. I rolled down the window and mouthed "is it okay to park here?" to which he kindly gave a thumbs up.

Comments
Comments: Snowshoes Kanc to Kanc. Pine Bend Brook was a nice snowshoe track for the most part, with a bit of drifting in the usual spots. Televators rocked on the steeps. En route to Middle Peak, I noticed that Sabbaday had been broken out, a couple of days ago by the looks of it. Made my way over to Middle Peak, where the broken out trail stopped. Decided to give South Tripyramid a little love and had fun finding the trail. I saw exactly one blaze - actually it was 1/2 blaze since part of it had peeled off - between Middle and South Peaks. But you more or less go straight without falling off the ridge, so it wasn't too challenging.

Decided to descend Sabbaday Brook Trail and was happy I did, such a lovely trail through a "hidden" valley. Trail was broken out all the way. Awesome butt sliding on the steeps. Checked out the Falls (beautiful!) and hoofed it a mile on the Kanc back to the car.
