Comments
Comments: Old Mountain Road had a nice snowshoe trough of packed powder (still not set up!) with occasional postholes.

Crawford Ridgepole on the other hand had been trashed by a bareboot mob that came up from the Route 113 side. Typical barebooting etiquette, such as trampling through vegetation in trying to get around the deep snow drifts. I tried to repair some of the damage, but wasn't able to do much. Hopefully we get snow from this incoming storm to repair the damage, rather than mixed precip (which could harden the trashed trail for days to come).

Noted some more clearing at the summit, this time on the western side.
