| Comments: |
Start of the trail was dry and easily bare-bootable. We encountered ice as we started the climb up the ridge and put on micro's up to the summit junction. Some sections were ice flows where some of us went off into the woods to get around them. Temps never warmed up for the ice to soften. When we reached North Cube the sun came out that afforded fine views. It was even sunnier on South Cube and we could see as far as Killington and Camel's Hump! Saw about six people. Great day out! Happy April!!! |
