Comments
Comments: Trails were slush all day today. Started in spikes and switched to snowshoes on the Black Pond wack and wore them the rest of the day. There was one hiker behind us bare booting carrying snowshoes so not sure what condition trail will be in after it freezes back up. It was much easier walking in shoes then spikes. The Brutis wack is a little different but gets you there. Really slippery coming down the steep with rotting snow and ice. Very windy at the summit but no rain today.
