Comments
Comments: Great day with a 'winter is returning feel'. 1-2 inches fresh light powder fell in AM...I guess it caused a mess on Rte 93 but was gorgeous in the mountains and during this hike. Brought the ice axe today for the upper Whiteface Ledges but only really needed in one spot. Trails mostly very well packed in this loop.
