Comments
Comments: Three people hiked out and back to Waumbek today. Didn't look like anyone had been up there since the recent snow. Good snow cover for snowshoes once above about 2500' but a little thin below. Probably 4-5" of loose snow at the start and 8-10" on the ridge with a few drifts toward Waumbek. Beautiful wintery day!
