 | Comments: |
Beautiful day today- bright sun, very little wind. Hancock Notch, Cedar Brook and lower portion of Hancock loop had multiple areas of erosion and ice but all could be avoided with care. Trail is otherwise packed powder.
The actual loop up North Hancock, over to South and down was in excellent shape with packed powder and very little ice. Barebooted the whole hike. |
