| Comments: |
Bare booted to just below Mt Blue, then mirco spikes to top and back to shelter. Crampons back to parking lot. Not quite enough snow for snowshoes although I did see two hikers with them on. Too much snow for micros on the steep section, not quite enough snow for crampons to feel really comfortable (but better than bare boots or micros). Thanks to hiker from Worcester, MA for breaking trail from Mt Blue to treeline. |
