| Comments: |
Wore snowshoes up Blueberry Ledge trail and over Whiteface ledges, then kept them on until the junction with Rollins and Dicey's Mill trails, then switched to Microspikes for the trip down Dicey's Mill. Probably could have barebooted up the Blueberry Ledge trail and just switched to snowshoes or crampons for the ledges. |
