Comments
Comments: First 1/2 mile is dirt trail, then changes quickly to loose snow. There was 6"-8" of sort of new snow that we broke out over to Waumbek. We followed the blazes over correcty. So it should be broken out from Starr King to Waumbek. The trail will be in rough shape. There was a barebooters club try outs in the afternoon. We smoothed it out the best we could on the way down, but they where still at the summit.
