| Comments: |
Carried spikes and shoes (don't ask me why--should've read last report by Georg). Neither is necessary as Stoney Brook Tr. is totally snow and ice free. Carter-Moriah has a few small rotted snow/ice patches easily barebooted over. Ledges nice and dry today. Several were traversing from Stoney Brook to Gorham; hopefully report from someone for that side of the mountain. Another nice day!! |
