| Comments: |
Broke trail for the 2 inches of snow on the road with cover on Hale Brook Trail. Bareboots for road, spikes for trail. Trail is in fine shape. Previous report is over exaggerated. Some open water crossing caused snow balling under feet.
Regardless caught skies clearing for a well lit full moon hike to the summit. Headlamps were only used on Hale Brook Trail. Otherwise it was bright and beautiful. |
