 | Comments: |
Road and trail in excellent condition. Saw both snowshoers and skiers on the mountain. The edge of the snowshoe track just below the alpine zone gave way at times but easy to remain on trail. Easy to moderate grades made snowshoeing easy. Gorge Brook trail's ascent up eastern side of mountain blocked the wind until reaching the open areas near the summit. Great views in all directions. |
