Bundled up and skied all the way to Hancock Loop Trail. Snowshoed up and down South Link. South Hancock outlook was gorgeous clear. I thought I saw the ocean steaming ha ha! Met 7 people coming up and three wearing snowshoes. Loop appears packed all the way. No one has ventured down Hancock Notch or Cedar Brook yet. |
