Comments
Comments: We lost the trail where the brooks converge, but the terrain acts like a hand-rail and brought us right up to the pass / height of land. The snow was deep here, but it was only a half mile to the summit. After checking out the canister, we headed westerly, towards Pliny's sub-peak. The woods were open and it was a very easy whack. From this sub-peak, there were terrific views of the Prezzies. We continued westerly, traveling easily through relatively open woods, emerging back onto the trail about a half mile from the trailhead. Great day.
