Comments
Comments: Hike up Oliverian Brook Trail was pleasant, just a couple inches of snow that'd been hiked on, so bare boots until I slipped on some hidden ice and switched to spikes a couple miles in. They stayed on over Passaconaway and Whiteface.

Kate Sleeper Trail had deeper snow, maybe a foot. Seemed like one or two people had been through with boots when things were wetter, and then these little potholes froze. I went over the trail in snowshoes, but it was a little tricky since some of the trail is rocky, frozen little streams. All in all it wasn't too much snow or work, and there were more moose tracks than human ones!

Back to spikes on the south slide of the Tripyramids where the sleeper trail connects. More hidden ice under the small amount of fresh snow we got. I slipped a few times going over Middle Tripyramid and down Pine Bend Brook. Overall conditions are good, just needed to be mindful.
