Snowshoes all day. Up the North trail.... televators made it very easy up the steep part. Ridge walk packed down nicely, bushwhack started a little more to the right than the flagged section for the usual track. More postholing here but snowshoes kept it from my ankles rolling so it was fine. Nothing broken after true summit so I made a nice track over to the western ledges. Fantastic views of the white mountains today. Bald eagle soared above and the sunshine was so warm. Great spot for a break. I went back down the ridge walk to the front ledges. Started on white flag trail and took Boulder trail to link back up with white flag then north trail to trailhead. Not many people in snowshoes but I felt it was the way to go. Plenty of snow cover, not once did I hit a rock or root. ✌🻠|
