At GPS coordinate 44.10687, -71.58347 (and at a large hardwood tree), make a sharp right to stay on well packed version of Black Pond Bushwhack vs. going the way we went on the way up. We found ourselves breaking trail through a 2" crust over 2+ feet of powder. It was slow going. On the way back, we noticed micro and snowshoe tracks and followed them all the way back to Black Pond - quick and easy. |
