Comments
Comments: Wore spikes out and back. Solid base under very soft snow on top. Only a few bare spots - otherwise, snow and ice.

Numerous gorgeous spots to take photos up to Kinsman Falls. Just past Kinsman Falls we looked to continue on the trail across Cascade Brook, but the water was running too fast and high, and we didn’t see a good set of rocks to hop across without risk of falling in and getting soaked.
