| Comments: |
Other than the -20 degree start, it was a beautiful day. Even warmed up to a balmy -9 at the finish! Bare-booted up and down with no problems. Only a few drifts on final section of ridge before Waumbek summit. Thanks to everyone who snowshoe-packed the trail over the past several days. |
