Comments
Comments: Wore microspikes to a point maybe a 1/2 mile above the Bald Peak Spur. From there on we changed into snowshoes. We were the first since earlier this week to pack the trail out up to Kinsman Ridge so it is loose powder up to the Ridge. the Kinsman Ridge Trail saw a lot of traffic today and the trail across to South is well packed out. A pretty darned good outing!
