 | Comments: |
Many thanks to the group that broke out the trail and posted a report here. Trail was a well packed snowshoe highway all the way to the summit. Tracks also heading northbound, likely to the north peak ledges (did not see any tracks at the AT crossing on Route 25A). No tracks heading to Smarts Mountain either.
Snowpack probably ranges from 20 to 30 inches. |
