We had a large group of hikers did out and back trip to Mt Zealand, Guyot, W Bond, and Bond from Zealand Hut. Thanks to Doug and Carl for orgainzing this AMC trip. Thanks to Link caretaker of Zealand Hut. We had a grand time. Trails from Rt 302 to summits were already packed out pretty well by previous hikers. We packed out additional snowfalls very nicely especially with going over route 2X with the out and back so these trails should be in primo condition. One contingent of our group snow shoed up to Mt Hale today 3/7 via Lend-a-Hand Trail so route that route is also packed out for folks wanting to do the full boat traverse. Good luck to all you March bonds traverse hikers! |
