Kearsarge North Trail down to Mt. Bartlett and Mt. Surprise
Light traction needed (or highly suggested) for the last 0.6 miles up to the fire tower. Most of group didn't wear them on the way up, but on the way down everyone except one put them on. Others on the trail also wearing microspikes. Significant and slippery leaf cover going down after Mt. Bartlett to the parking lots - just as slippery as the ice at times. |
