| Comments: |
Used micros the entire way. The Franconia Ridge Trail between Lafayette and Haystack had blown drifts sometimes 2 feet deep with occasional post holing but
snow shoes are not needed. Most of the footing is stable. There are many sections of both exposed ice and under the snow but micros were sufficient. |
