Comments
Comments: Not much snow in beginning more as we climbed. What made the climb to North Twin tough with the recent snow was the person from a recent hike “bare booting” , so we had to clean that mess plus break the new snow

We were glad to get to North Twin, as numerous groups had come from Beaver Brook and had nicely broken out the rest of our journey to South Twin and Galehead.

We ran into Renee at the hut. Congratulations on finishing your NH winter peaks today.

Certainly a comfortable day of hiking on the beautiful Twins
