| Comments: |
on the upper ridge, the trail was loosely broken out with lots of spruce traps. At one point it was hard to find the trail. it was very apparent that a few people had a hard time as there was snowshoe tracks everywhere on top of the first knob of the ridge. The spur trail to Zealand peak was not broken out, we took care of that.
Zealand out and back is a very long day.
