Fantastic day to do Madison, Adams, Jefferson. Lots of ice floes on Valley Way going up. Jefferson: Needed to go up and around snowfields, icy as well. Broke in trail on Randolph Path up to Lowe's Path junction. Heading down Lowe's Path after Randolph junction extensive ice flows, a lot more treacherous than on Valley Way. Crampons would have been a big help, used Hillsound spikes the whole trip.
Northern Presis never disappoint! |
