Comments
Comments: Slow going due to trees in trail and snowshoes. Saw a man at Jennings Peak junction that was going to Sandwich summit was turned around because he lost the trail. I proceeded and discovered what he was talking about. With the help of maps I was able to find and break out the trail to summit lookout on Sandwich Mtn.
