Comments
Comments: Gorge Brook is very well packed; we were able to use spikes the whole way.

Carriage Road is not well broken yet, and snowshoes would be better on it until it is. I saw many with spikes getting by, but certainly would be easier with snowshoes.

Snapper is mostly snow-covered but gets a bit boney towards the end.

SPECTACULAR blue skies and snow covered trees above treeline. Pick a nice day and go hike Moose!
