Comments
Comments: Wore snowshoes car to car. Only about an inch of new snow to start, with about 4 inches as we climbed. Just below the junction of the Kinsman Ridge Trail there started to be some drifts with more across the ridge between the summits. It starts to feel like it is winter; wouldn't have wanted to be without snowshoes. Both summits in the clouds, but had a great time on Bald Knob with great views. Thanks to Tim for another great day.
