Great hike. Mixed bag of trail conditions. Dry, wet, incredibly icy, bare ledges at summit. Started in spikes and left 'em on all day. Could have used the heavier-duty Hillshounds at the beginning in the morning but we managed. Great hike on a beautiful day. Shout out to Brian (and friend whos name we cannot recall,sorry)from Nashua. They went on to tag Webster. |
