| Comments: |
The trail was fully broken out. Surfaces were very solid so flotation not required if one stays on the pathway. Traction provided sure footing on the crusty snow/ice.
Great views from the south ledges of Mt Moriah as well as from the summit.
Hiked with John from Derry and also met an AMC group hike.
