 | Comments: |
A short, steep and sweet climb up the Kinsman Ridge Trail. Approximately 1 mile up the trail enters a tree skiing glade and is difficult to follow. Trail switchbacks through the glade and staying the course diagonally crossing the glade should keep you on track. Look for faded blue tree markers. As the trail thins there is a roped tree, staying to the left continues up the KRT. Heavy winds and severe drifting made the .5 mile summit push a challenge. |
