Comments
Comments: Trail was pretty well broken to the first view heading up Sandwich Mtn Trail when we headed up. Kristin and I broke from that point up to Jennings and down Drakes Brook. Past the view point, over to Jennings, and down Drakes the new snow was 12-18 inches, and I think it will take a few more snowshoe'd hikers to get it well consolidated.
