Road walk is in great shape. The firmest spots are on the shoulder. We bare booted all day but carried snowshoes. Trail is a bit choppy in spots but otherwise in really good condition. Zero wind and endless views into VT and ME had us lingering on the summit for almost in hour. T shirt weather today. Minimal weather coming in this week should set this up perfectly. Snowshoes might help this weekend
NEHH: There is a pretty nice snowshoe track going in the direction of carrigain notch. it does not join back up with signal ridge at the junction so thinking Vose is broke |
