| Comments: |
We started from Waterville, and the trail was pretty wet for the most part. At about 1.2 miles, or the "view" sign, we put on spikes, and then it was uphill ice trains from there. Be prepared for a lot of ice, you definitely need spikes for this trail. Nearing the top, there was some compressed snow, each to walk uphill on. No views from the top, but it was still a good hike! |
