Lincoln Woods can be bear booted we went snow shoes all day. Black Pond is worth the visit, a beautiful spot. Both bush whacks are easy to follow, almost missed the start on Brutus. Brutus is a very steep climb but really no issues. Well defined to summit. Pay attention heading down, Brutus is easily missed. Owls Head Path looks well broken out. We met 1 who came down the slide, he said don't do it. Only a few have been on it & it's deep snow. A beautiful day!
Congrats to Kevin #47 |
