Comments
Comments: THIS REPORT EXPIRES AT MIDNIGHT TONIGHT! STORM COMING!

Packed snow super-highway from Rte 116 parking lot to KRT. KRT from junction with MKT all the way to South Peak was 99% packed snow. Just a few short sections with soft drifted snow about mid calf deep at the most. Ideal trail conditions today.
