 | Comments: |
First mile of the trail is a complete muddy mess with running water. After the first mile the mud let’s up a little until 1.5 when you reach ice. At this point we put on spikes. To start king is hard packed ice and snow and the same for Waumbek. Would not even bother carrying snowshoes until several significant snow falls |
