one leaner on Scaur Ridge to hunker under. one on Pine Bend that you really do need to crawl under. baby beech trees leaning into the footbed on Scaur Ridge, one gave me a stingy nip whip. then higher a particularly aggressive spruce branch gave me a split lip on the way down. |

I wasn't 100% sure that I would be up for this after doing Owlshead on Thursday, but I'm getting my hiking mojo back. knocked these peaks out in 6.5 hrs and didn't feel completely trashed at the end. snow conditions were great for shoes. I spiked in to where Livermore Rd goes right over the bridge and Livermore tr goes straight-ish. On the return I stayed in shoes, because snow was softening and would've just balled up under the spikes. Scaur Ridge is a lovely way to get the Tris, except for the angry saplings as noted above. There was a recent ? snowmobile track on Livermore tr that ran over the snowshoe track for pretty much the entire way. anyway, job done.
Note: Snowshoes or skis are required on Livermore Road. |
