Comments
Comments: Pasture Trail is virtually snow free (for now). Mostly dry. Ridge Trail was perhaps 1/3rd ice monorail, but not enough to warrant spikes. Patchy snow in the woods. Col Trail was mostly snow free with some muck in the usual place.

Heard that Old Bridle Path is icy.

Nice blue skies. Summit somewhat busy, but not overly crowded. Squam Lake is still iced over.
