| Comments: |
Ledges Trail - some minor snow/ice on first 1/2 mile, traction helpful but not necessary. Rest of the trail has minimal ice/snow - no traction needed.
Bald Peak Trail - section between Sue's Way and Bald Peak summit is quite a mess with lots of ice. Traction here is highly recommended, especially for descent. Trail below Sue's Way has a few avoidable sections of ice and snow, but lots of mud. Ridge has some sections of ice and snow also, traction helpful. |
