 | Comments: |
Up Gorge Brook, down Snapper
Normal early winter conditions. It did start to snow as we reached the top (we started late in the morning). By the time we came down the mountain there was a fresh coat of snow (1"). It continued to snow well after we left the mountain and started driving off. Snow in the area was as much as 2 inches at the time of departure. |
