 | Comments: |
My sharp Hillsounds went on at the first scramble above the Tom Wiggins junction and started on until the water crossing on Dicey’sMill. Some good ice on bits of the ledges, but nothing extreme and it wasn’t too hard with caution. Super thick ice coming down from Whiteface toward Passaconaway that we got very little traction on. Used the trees to help and we were fine. Ice up Passaconaway was soft and we had no issues there. Minimal snow cover going down Dicey, but that’s all about to change! Great day up there! |
