Snowy hike and still snowing YAY !!! Summit at 930 was around 1 1/2 inches upon descent at lower elevations at least an inch, we may get up to 4 inches in the higher summits of NH .Pretty hike with snow covering the trees , no views and no wind , a lone gray jay at the top was Not interested in getting food .Trail was frozen solid , bare booted and used hill sounds .Easy to navigate with spikes around the deep post holes from previous warmer days. Trail in lower elevations had bare rock and leaves . Have fun out there !!! |
