| Comments: |
Pretty firm up to Norcross Pond - spikes were fine to here. Got a little softer/less supportive, so we switched to snowshoes to make our way along the Pond and up the herd path. Herd path hadn’t seen recent traffic by was easy enough to follow. Our group of 4, plus one other who followed, now have tracked it out nicely. Thanks to Denise and Whitney for a fun day out. |
