Comments
Comments: We hiked out on the 31st to camp and climbed on the 1st. A group of 4-5 had broke out the trail all the way to West Bond on Friday. Climbing Bondcliff snowshoes were good but down low there is not much snow left. Light traction as an option for crossing Bondcliff. Snowshoes needed about 3/4 of the way up Bond and all the way over to West Bond. Even after the pack down from the group the day before we were still sinking 4-12 inches in snowshoes and the snow was very wet and sticky and made for slow going. Lincoln Woods trail was getting slushy on the hike out on Sunday.
