After yesterday‘s snowstorm I had to get out. It was such beautiful fluffy snow and I got to trail break the entire way! The snow wasn’t too deep probably about five or 6 inches with some drifting up to a couple feet in the open windy areas. I broke the winter route up and then took the gunstock Mountain Trail down which probably wasn’t the best idea because that trail was pretty steep in some places. I did have one small spot where I lost the orange trail blaze going down gunstock Mountain Trail but backtracked and easily found the orange blaze. It was a beautiful day and there were a lot of skiers up at the summit and you could even see Mount Washington in the distance ! Five stars, highly recommend :) |
