| Comments: |
Barebooted to the first ledges, spiked across those, barebooted to the summit steeps and spiked fro there to Passaconaway and back down to Dicey's Mill. Once past the Rollins Junction, barebooted the rest of the way out. Snow disappeared down in the flat part of the bowl where the sun hits it. |
