| Comments: |
No need for snowshoes as the snow is quickly receding. Some were using light traction on the kinsmans, but we went without. The Jar on Mt Wolf was on the ground and could use string (we hung as best we could), no damage to the register. This is a great section of trail. No views from the kinsmans due to clouds, but we did have them on wolf, the AT powerlines, and bald knob. Good day out with Kyle+finished redlining kinsman/cannon section of the wmg. |
