Generally pretty good trail conditions, and easy climb. Tough cross at the brook on Liberty Spring Tr. Several ice patches you will need traction for (we wore our microspikes the entire hike), with microspikes not too much of a problem. We brought our snow shoes but didn't need them. I think it had just snowed last night (a few inches) which gave the trail a really nice texture, if it rains at all it will be a much tougher climb. |
