| Comments: |
Used snowshoes from start of Black Pond Trail till back to same spot. The Black Pond bushwack seems to bend a ways to left but ends up at the stream crossing. For the Brutus section, we followed Jeb's route. Coming down was very tricky with the crust layer under the new snow. Ran into John and Pepper at the top. Several other people were also out. It was cold in the wind, but still a great day. |
