 | Comments: |
I used my microspikes to hike up the carriage road, and then put on my snowshoes for the majority of the day. The more trafficked trails like the white trail, and the blue trail were very post holed. The lightly trafficked trails such as the piper-round pond trail and the boulder trail hadnt seen much use since the last snow. I broke trail on the red trail. If you hike these trails soon it will be best to bring snow shoes. There wasnt much ice. I scrambled up the boulder trail in my snowshoes without any issues. |
