| Comments: |
Traction might be nice for descending from treeline on Moosilauke to the col on Mt. Blue (Beaver Brook Trail). Since I was ascending, I chose not to but there was a fair bit of glaze ice caused by the "precipitating" rime falling from the trees. May be ice-free now, since this was early in the day. Everything will change Sunday, though. |
