Comments
Comments: Broke trail to Martha and then to Owlshead.4 or 5” of unpacked powder. On way up. One group followed plus one more to Martha. 1st group was using snowshoes as well. So trail is well defined now. Mostly cloudy day with light flurries the whole way. Additional packing of trail might be desired- snowshoes please.
