I know things will change after the storm...but here is how it went down today...Parked at the Nineteen Mile Brook Trailhead parking lot. It was very well plowed as always, and plenty of room for quite a few cars. Walked up to the Camp Dodge Cutoff, put on snow shoes and they stayed on all the way to Carter Dome. There was some post holing and drifts along the way. Snow was pretty soft. At Carter Dome we changed into Hillsound Trail Crampons for the descent, back down to the Carter Dome Trail and Nineteen Mile Brook Trail. Snowshoes would have been fine too, but the Trail Crampons were also fine. Crossed paths with about 10 people total, and one doggo. Ended up being a really nice day with some gorgeous views! |
