| Comments: |
Nineteen Mile had a fresh 2-4 inches over frozen granular ice. Used Hillsounds to the junction with the Wildcat Ridge Tr. Wildcat Ridge Tr had a fresh 3-5 inches of snow. We started off with just spikes, but quickly switched to snowshoes as the snow drifts became 2+ feet deep. Stayed in snowshoes all the way to D peak and back to the Nineteen Mile Brook Tr. Overall very sunny day with single digit temps. The wooded ridge provided great cover from the high winds today. |
