Doublehead trail from Nesowadhehunk
Very easy trail with a 3 inches of crusty snow. Microspikes were ok for the first part until the middle brook crossing. After that I started postholling and switched to snowshoes fot the rest to the top where at least 2 feet of snow set in the wood. Got the last glimpse of the very pink sunset and got down by headlamp. |
