The long weekend brought out the Bluejean clad Barebooters. Never mind that there was a windchill warning. Trail was well packed to the hut and fairly well packed to North. The barebooters apparently didn't know about South Kinsman as that section was a perfect snowshoe track. Congrats to BarbaraR for getting 20 & 21 W4K -- earning a gold star for hanging in there in cold and windy conditions. There was one track on the Mt. Kinsman Trail -- so hard to say how well packed that side of the hill is. |
