 | Comments: |
This is such a great trail option for the Kinsmans. Such a gentle hike up to the Kinsman Ridge Trail. With the snow overnight it was a winter wonderland against the blue skies. The ice under the snow was soft and grippy. We didn't put spikes on until the second mile on Mount Kinsman Trail. |
