 | Comments: |
After a chilly overnight at the cabin managed to catch a beautiful sunrise on Chocorua and then a quick hike over to Middle Sister. Lots of sketchy blue ice on Champney Falls Cutoff. used micros but trail crampons may be the better option. i met 5 others enjoying this beautiful morning. Snowshoes not needed at this time as track is solid as concrete. |
