 | Comments: |
Went up Blueberry without any sort of traction until the ledges. Put on microspikes after that. You will need something because of the ice and pitch of the trail. Had snowshoes but it was easier climbing with traction. At the peak of Whiteface switched to snowshoes and broke trail on Rollins Tr over to Dicey's Trail. You all can thank me. Wanted to do Passaconaway also but I was pooped from breaking trail and running out of daylight. Warm and sunny day. |
