| Comments: |
No snow or ice today. Visibility was good today so it was worth walking down to the viewpoint at the north outlook (signed "to view" on Walden trail just below summit. Some hikers missed the short spur path to the summit of Passaconaway (not signed). Nice views to Winnipesauke and Squam Lakes from small ledge on the Walden Trail. |
