| Comments: |
Muddy spots along the way, as well as wet and slippery roots/rocks in spots due to the rain the night before. Did Middle Sugarloaf first, which has a very large ledge area with great views. Then went back and over to North Sugarloaf - not as big of a viewing area, but we had the summit to ourselves. Could see the snow and ice on the Presidentials today. No snow or ice on the trail.
With the number of cars parked along Zealand Road, we expected the trail to be packed, but it wasn't. Still a well traveled trail. |
