 | Comments: |
With overnight snow we put on snowshoes in lot, however very boney up to the sugar shack. Can certainly be bear-booted or spikes to Bald Peak. Cold temps & the snow can’t be compacted so snowshoes work best to keep it smooth. Nice track all the way to the junction. Snow depth increased all the way to South but track is still well established. Very windy on South, our tracks were covered on the way back so drifting will be an issue. Trail back down was in great shape so please snowshoes are a must to keep trail in great shape.
Thanks to Kerri, Jenna, & Tom for a great day |
