Spectacular blue sky day! Terrific panorama views of Presidentials and everywhere, especially from Hight!! Trails crusty in the am, then just a little sticky by mid-day. Steep section up to Hight from the N was unbroken; now two snowshoe tracks, (although barebooters may have gone there later). We did micros early, then snowshoes thereafter, except down CM trail to Hut, where thick, slushy snow made descent an adventure, including some unplanned slides (footing here difficult).
Kestrel data: T=25F W=25mph WC=5F.
Another wonderful day! |
