 | Comments: |
Well-packed trail except for a few spots as it crossed and recrossed Kinsman Glade ski trail. One of our party had to switch from snowshoes to MicroSpikes as their snowshoes didn't have traction rails, only small toe crampons. Most folk went up with light traction, but I was glad to wear snowshoes. Two hours up, 1.25 down, and a nice, warm summit lodge for hot chocolate!
Thanks, Cannon Mountain Ski Resort! |
