As reported yesterday, treadway is pretty choppy and narrow. Spikes sufficient to KRT without further distorting the trail. Tried snowshoes for a while on the ridge, but it was pretty frustrating — eventually opted to join what I couldn’t beat. The 116 side of N Kinsman was getting pretty soft by mid-afternoon. Gorgeous route on a spectacular day. |
