| Comments: |
Much of the snow that fell Friday has melted along Black Pond Trail through the heardpath to Lincoln Brook Trail. From there few inches remained with short sections of old monrail underneath in spots that don't get direct sunlight.
The few sets of tracks to Owl's Head this morning before us all went up and down the slide, no tracks up Brutus since Friday's storm. We mostly stayed on the path with a few unplanned deviations. Not enough snow to support snowshoes until about 3,500 ft. |
