 | Comments: |
Mt Kinsman trail was packed and beautiful. Once at the T, the trail to N Kinsman was steep in places and I was glad to have my hillsound but kahtoola would have worked. All blue ice on the slabs had nice thick snow to make climbing a piece of cake. I grabbing S Kinsman, make sure you make it to the real summit. This is an easy 10 miles for winter hiking beginners. |
