 | Comments: |
Two of us on snowshoes followed a lone hiker on snowshoes to Jennings Peak. While the other hiker trekked onward toward Sandwich Dome, we looped back to the parking area on the Drakes Brook Trail. The SMT was a nice smooth snowshoe track, whereas the DBT was new snow on top of a bunch of frozen post holes. We smoothed it out as best we could. |
