 | Comments: |
Winter has arrived early in White Mountains. Shallow crusty snow made for ideal microspike conditions. There was some bare spots for short distance did not bother removing the microspikes. Trail starts our moderate grade then climbs steadily to summit. Not terribly steep with decent footing. Trail is very popular so expect company on weekends. |
