Lincoln Woods Tr., Lincoln Brook tr., Owls Head Path
Lincoln Woods trail had 1-2†snow this morning but was really slushy around noon. We used spikes all the way to the last water crossing then switched to snow shoes for the accent. Snow balled up no matter what you wore. We barefooted the rest of the way out without postholing. Eliminating the snow balls on our feet. All trails here had stable solid base under last nights fresh snow. Trees were full of wet melting snow from 9am on so we got soaked today on the accent/deccent. Dried off a bit on the way out. No veiws but a great warm day on Owlshead before the snow bridges melted. |
