| Comments: |
The trail to the Kinsmans was in great shape. The KRT over the Cannon Balls had one old showshoe track and was in really rough shape. However, I passed 4 people going the other way so I am sure it is well broken now. Be prepared to dodge blowdowns and get hit in the face with sticks! The KRT up the back of Cannon was steep and icy. Go slow and bring traction. Hi-Cannon was great except the ladders are completely filled in a little slick. |
