Unofficial Trail, Sugarloaf Trail
It was a great day to be out on the summits, views were great and we had both summits to ourselves. Couldn't believe no one was on these mountains. We switched back and forth between Microspikes and snowshoes all day. We did video the top of the Sugarloaf Trail from Zealand Rd, if what we filmed is any indication, then expect a lot of postholes from that direction.
We did post a video for anyone interested in seeing the hike or trail conditions, just follow the link... |
