Pine Bend Brook Trail up and Sabbaday Brook Trail donw
Almost all of the trail was icy. Hillsounds worked but crampons would have been better. Very slow going in the steep section of Sabbaday Brook trail, and not always possible to bushwack around the steep sections. It was not pleasant. High clouds during most of the day, but socked in when we got to the top - no views. Sabbaday Falls impressive. Downpour started just after we drove out of the parking lot to head home. |
