| Comments: |
Snowshoes useful both on ascent of Old Bridal Path and descent of Falling Waters to the highest crossing. After that, traction helpful around the waterfall area, as there is some exposed ice in the steep sections. Light traction useful for the ridge, as it is bony, with a mix of snow and rock. Perfect day for the ridge with very little wind and bluebird skies and another excellent hike with Greg YEAH! |
