 | Comments: |
Nice maintained trail up to Whiteface as the WODC had been out recently (and were yesterday as well). Trails to that point clear of snow, and only snow we really saw was on the way up to Passaconaway and even that was easy to go around or stepover. One more week of nice weather will melt what's left. Alot of mud on the old slide trail so be aware. Overall a good day to be out, minus the bugs. |
