Did a wonderful hike from Zealand Rd past the Zealand Falls hut, up to Zeacliff and Mt Zealand, the spur to West Bond for the evening sun, and then on to Guyot campsite for the night. Mt Bond and Bondcliff the next morning on the way down to Lincoln Woods. Beautiful time, glad we had traction for the ridge from Zealand to Bond (there were a few inches of new snow on the trail as well), dry before Zealand Falls hut and then again after Bond along the ridge to Bondcliff. |
