Comments
Comments: the trail was packed out all the way. solid down low and through the ledges then a bit softer to the summit. a little chewed up in spots, but mostly ok walking. snow was quickly softening in sunny areas on the descent.

i wore snowshoes, but most people up there have been using boots or light traction.

beautiful day to take in from the summit of kearsarge north. such a great view from the summit tower. cold to start, but warmed up quickly. nice to be out.
