| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
The old parking area for Kulish Ledge on Old Stoddard Rd. in Nelson has been closed to vehicles, but foot traffic is still ok. A new parking area has been opened 0.5 mi. west along the same road (1.9 mi. from NH 123). This is the only legal parking for this side of the Partridge Woods trails. The new lot has had a couple of passes by a plow, but is only partially cleared. This new parking area links to Holt Trail via Priscilla's Path, a short connector. |

| Comments: |
I'm not gonna go into too much detail as tomorrow's storm is going to erase any current conditions, but there's enough snow here that snowshoes are the only logical choice of travel and definitely will be going forward.
I did see some past evidence of traffic, but it was all drifted in. From the East Pinnacle viewpoint to Ridge Trail I was treated to pristine unbroken powder. Super.
Having the sun out today was a joy after what seems like endless gray days this season. |
