 | Comments: |
Great April weather with clear skies and low winds. Trails are in great shape on the southern side of the Long Trail from Lincoln Gap. Once you pass Abraham, trail is more icier and fairly difficult on the steep sections after Ellen near the shelter (very icy but doable with caution). |
