| Comments: |
Lincoln Woods trail has a bridge “closed†one of the small ones. Dry trail and mud until the 5 mile point, where you begin to encounter the typical spring trail conditions- lots of running water on the trail, mud, melting monorail. You must walk on top on the snow at times, we barebooted the ascent. No snow on Bondcliff or the col. Significant snow begins on the way to Bond and remains until the summit of West. Stayed overnight in Guyot shelter, all is well at the campsite. One of us used snowshoes and the other used spikes on the return from the campsite until Bond. |
