 | Comments: |
Only in NH you walk on a dry trail for 45 minutes the on ice for about a mile in half, then walk in waist deep snow across the top from Mt to Mt. in 70 degree weather. It was a mix of everything and made for an interesting hike. Use caution on the ice, micro spike were huge and should of brought snow shoes for the top. Met 3 other hikers on the mt. It was a great day to hike and we had a blast. Even got a suntan. |
