Comments
Comments: Zealand Rd/Trail is a packed highway to the hut. It was getting warm and the snow was getting a little loose on way to Zealand summit, but nothing bad. Broke from Zealand spur to Twinway/Bondcliff junction and then to Guyot campsite. A pair was going the way we just came in bareboot so likely destroyed what we did. West Bond Spur has been midly rerouted due to blowdowns. Upper Bondcliff trail below the "mini bondcliff" was pretty rutted out from bare booters and warm snow. My ankles took a beating! lol! All in all a great day with J&J

Spikes to hut, switched to snowshoes until between Bond and Bondcliff, back to spikes to Lincoln Woods.
