Awesome day on Cannon yesterday. Went up the Kinsman Ridge Trail which for the most part was in excellent condition. Close to the summit the trail was a bit hard to follow, several undefined paths, with deeper, softer snow. I got off trail going up and coming down, and postholed waist deep. The weather was spectacular: warm, sunny, windy. The views were equally impressive. Love getting those days. |
