Comments
Comments: What a difference a day makes! Yes, I did hike it two days in a row, hah! Trail firmed up amazing overnight and was a virtual sidewalk / super speedway to Brutus. As mentioned yesterday, Black Pond is way, way to the right and Brutus is off as well but they will get you to where you want to be. There is a new view that opened up with stunning views of the Bonds, Carrigain and Hancocks. Spikes to Brutus, snowshoes to summit, spikes out. PERFECT conditions! 11/12 grid :)
