A handful of blowdowns between Mt. Cabot and The Bulge. They are not troublesome and seem to have been there for some time.

Toby and Cinnilla had a great time - enjoying the first snow of the season + plenty of water and mud. The very top of The Horn is tricky for dogs. |

 | Comments: |
Overnight rain had turned into snow above 3,000 ft. and at 4,000 ft. the trees were covered with 1-2" of wet snow. Not much on the trail, though. However, wet and muddy conditions pretty much everywhere.
We (Georg, Toby, Cinnilla and myself) got several light snow showers until the sky started clearing early afternoon - and it was definitely the first touch of winter. |
