 | Comments: |
Had to use Aqueduct Path from Glen House. 19 mile brook trail is well packed but still recommend snowshoes. We broke trail up to Mt Hight until we saw party of 4 descending with dog. Used their tracks for the remainder and the descent back down other side. Hike over to Carter from Hight was epic with the snow easily adding 6-8 feet above ground on the ridge. Very good views. Recommend snowshoes for Carter Dome. Stayed at the hut and did Wildcat A early the next morning. Lightly broken the day before so definitely a tough little hike. Great views of carter notch. |
