Once again solo hiking has led to important questions such as can we rename Bunnell Notch to Funnel Crotch as its shaped like a funnel and is this dark narrow sweaty place with lots of vegetation. Snowshoes from car to car, very important to keep the trail nice, apparently this memo didn't make it to the several people in spikes who trashed the trail in a few spots yesterday. Decent amount of wind drifts from the cabin to the summit, got the joy of rebreaking some of the same drifts on the return less than 15 minutes later. Was cold up there in the afternoon and needed all my layers, got an unexpected window of clear skies for some views from Bunnell Rock, the only viewpoint of any significance on this stupid mountain |
