Comments
Comments: Liberty springs is in decent condition and the ridge is rather rough and very much so a tunnel from Liberty to the col between it & Flume. Snowshoes went on at the start of the herd path and stayed on until back at my car. Depending on how much snow we get the next couple days, could def be crawling in places on the ridge. Completely unbroken from the junction over towards Little Haystack
