About an inch of new snow at the parking area and 2 inches of new snow on these trails. The trails had about 6 inches of packed snow and all the ice was covered which made for good hiking. Even with a full parking area I only saw 2 hikers. There were a lot of tracks heading to Mt. Passaconaway. Temps were from 20 to 35 with sun and clouds and a few snow flakes falling at times. The wind was very strong on the Rollins Trail but it was nice and sheltered in the trees. |
