| Comments: |
19 Mile Brook Trail great for microspikes. Mostly packed/icy snow, some light powder, some icy areas, and some open drainages and rocky areas. CDT was excellent for microspikes -- well packed, very little ice, some open drainages. Significant drifting in places on C-M Trail,especially between S and M Carter, so snowshoes suggested for the ridge. |
