 | Comments: |
The day started with a well packed Lincoln Woods trail. As the temperatures rose and the snow fell the trails required snowshoes. With the 5-6 groups out there today the snow should get better packed but it will take some time to get back to “sidewalk†conditions. Don’t try Owls Head anytime soon without traction and snowshoes. |
