| Comments: |
Lincoln Woods is all packed but a little rough to walk on. Bondcliff has seen fewer hikers but there is a good packed trail by snowshoes with a couple of inches of powder down low and 4 inches of powder up at treeline. Some drifts at the usual windy spots and bare rock at the peak. I did not see any exposed ice at all.
Overcast day with spitting snow all day. Temps from 30 to 35 and a light breeze at times. No hikers today, Snowshoe packed trail with some fresh powder on top. No views today but it was great to hike in the snow. |
