 | Comments: |
from saddleback ski area, green weaver to tricolor. maps available at lodge. top of tricolor, take spur to a.t. top of peaks are wet rock. easy going. between cols, snow is 3 to 4 feet deep. highly suggest small snow shoes in these area. also traction needed going up ski slopes. still 1 ft base in most places. fantastic views. kathadin and mt.wash visible without binoculors. number 62 and 63. d&d |
