Large tree about 1/3 of the way up from parking area has fallen and a snowshoe path goes around it. A step over between the two peaks that could use some delimbing. Another large tree in that same section that a path has formed around. This one will require an axe or chain saw. |

 | Comments: |
Beautiful cold day for a snowshoe hike to waumbek. Snow was deep and soft. Definitely snowshoes for the win. Butt sleds worked well too for a few on descent. Deep drifts up high 1-2 feet. Ice was mostly covered up from fresh snowfall. |
