Did this loop hike counter clockwise. Big rock cave was fun. Old paugus trail pretty dam rugged. I barebooted but spikes in the spruces highly recommended, very icy to beeline. Views from ledges were impressive. A lot of bear prints in the trails on old paugus and Lawrence. Seem like more bear than humans were bushwacking to true summit so I passed. Lol. Very rugged hike for a 52wav considering the ice but that’s my kind of hike. Only saw 2 people all day.✌🻠|
