We used snowshoes but you could manage on anything. Well tracked trail. Small windblown drifts here and there. Met one back country skier who lapped us with his husky. Views were good but the higher summits of the Whites were clouded over. Kestrel T = 24F, W = NW with 28 ave., 36 peak, WC = 3, min = 0. Exhilarating wind on the summit. Nice day to experiment with a new set of snowshoes. |
