 | Comments: |
Wwanted to hit some new sections of trails today (for a few of us)..Success Trail to Mahoosuc to Carlo Col and down..mainly soft, powderly snow, with a few frozen mud pits..thankful for the bog bridges...3 bad, ice-covered steep boulder areas, where we used much caution to get down..about 4-6 inches of new, light snow made the going easy, no need for snowshoes yet, but we used microspikes most of the way..no views again today but the conditions made it challenging and fun...Lefty E |
