| Comments: |
All above trails were in great condition. All trails broken out. We used micro-spikes on Nineteen Mile Brook Trail and then switched over to snowshoes on the Carter Dome Trail towards the approach of the Carter-Moriah Trail. The switch was due to the warm temperatures and the snow becoming soft. Left our snowshoes on for the rest of the hike to help maintain the trails. To the individuals who broke out the trails and did some trail maintenance, thank you very much and was very appreciated. |
