| Comments: |
Trail is hard and fast from the lot to the top of Passaconaway. Mostly hard packed snow with some ice covered with a dusting of snow. I wore Hillsounds and my friend Diane wore Microspikes, both handled all but two very short sections of trail easily, and were adequate for those two sections using readily available handholds for support. |
