 | Comments: |
The day started out gray with high overcast clouds but the sun came out at about noon. Temps from 0 to 20 with some wind on both summits and really nice in the woods. Saw 19 hikers and 5 dogs. Some hikers used snowshoes, some light traction and some barebooted. A really nice day with great views in all directions. |
