| Comments: |
Relatively harsh conditions starting on the exposed ridges. Temps around +11 with winds steady 40 & gusting to 50, visibility from 1/8 to 1/4 mile and 6" of new snow. Some drifting up to 18". Spend some time on the first ledges finding the trail. Our tracks were covered on the way down. All in all a great day with John G. One more winter 4k to do. Owls Head this weekend:) |
