 | Comments: |
Summer Parking Lot was open, which is about 0.5 mile road walk to the start of the trail. Trail was well broken out to Moosilauke. Low visibility/white out on Moosilauke. Used All Trails to locate Beaver Brook trail. The trail had been broken out up to Blue. The spur up was not broken out and difficult due to deep snow and downed trees, making the trail was very hard to locate. Coming down from Blue was easy as we retraced our steps. On to Jim which was broken out up to the intersection of Beaver Brook Trail and Asquam Ridge Trail. From there down a mile was not broken out. Then footsteps appeared making it easier to navigate. It took us 10 hrs. in total time and for 11.7 miles.
