 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Plenty of parking but several patches of black ice. |
|
 | Surface Conditions: |
Ice - Black, Snow - Trace/Minimal Depth |

Light Traction |

 | Water Crossing Notes: |
All were easy. It was much safer to step in a few inches of water than step on the iced over rocks. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
A few blowdowns on Hancock Notch and Cedar Brook Trails but all wee easy to manage. All of the really muddy spots were frozen solid. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Marlie and Brewer did well despite the temps in the mid 20s. This was an easy hike for the dogs with plenty of water along the way. We saw three other dogs all off of the leash and had no major problems. |
