| Comments: |
Trails were good. Lincoln woods, Osseo, Franconia Ridge all well packed and easy to follow. Some considerable snow drifts between MT. Flume and Lincoln. Serious drifts as you head in the tree onto the Garfield Ridge trail and along the A.T.
Franconia Brook Trail had seen some travel prior; likely after the last snowfall. From 13 Fall campsite, well packed!
Snowshoes and light traction (at least) advisable along the Fran. Ridge |
