 | Comments: |
Headed up Nickerson & Carter Ledge trail. Trail was sort of broken up to the ledges; then the one person had turned around. The two of us took turns breaking trail across Middle Sister & rejoined broken trail at the intersection with Champney Falls Trail. Fog rolled in and with impending storm, we decided to save Chocorua for another day. Snow was hip-deep in some spots, and routinely knee deep. |
