Comments
Comments: noon time start with evening plans so opted for quick up and down on Hale Brook Trail. Ground nicely frozen with a good track pretty much to the upper crossing. Some ice above there with frozen ground and just enough packed snow to make for great traction. A few icy spots tho the die hards obviously barebooted. Perfect day for the ice-bugs which were perfect for the mixed conditions today. Some views from the blowdown areas. Noted that a group had descended via Fire Wardens. Great fall day to be out!!!
