| Comments: |
The first mile and a half is concrete snow and is better with light traction or just bare boots. After that snowshoes are the way to go. There is so much snow that there are some pretty cool views along the Kinsman Ridge that aren't usually there! Another great morning in the mountains with Whitney, #42 & #43 for her SSW48 :) |
