 | Comments: |
Trails are all packed down well, some spots are a little uneven and choppy but smooth sailing for the most part. If heading up tomorrow, expect the trail to be wind-drifted in spots, especially between the cabin and the summit, if you're the first ones on trail bring your snowshoes for this section to make it easier on yourself.
Kilkenny Ridge trail past Cabot's summit had no fresh tracks, we did meet two hikers at the Unknown Pond trailhead who were hiking up Unknown Pond Trail to Kilkenny Ridge Trail over the summit to stay at the cabin, however they didn't have snowshoes so expect a little choppiness between Cabot and Unknown Pound.
Nice day on Cabot with Todd, quite a few people out and about enjoying the trails. |
