Comments
Comments: We had hoped the trail would be broken out but it looked like no one had been on it for a week and it had 5-6 inches of new snow on the trail. We saw 6 other people in snowshoes so the trail is now nicely packed out. Wore spikes to start but changed to snowshoes on Haystack and kept them on all the way back. Total mileage on this route is 10 miles.
