 | Comments: |
Lion's Head trail from Bunker Hill Rd was all ice. AT had some ice on rockier sections near Lion's Head. In woods, AT had a few inches of loose or packed granular snow. Used microspikes the whole way. Snowshoes might have made for easier walking in some spots, but not necessary. Post holing not an issue. |
