 | Comments: |
Trails are virtually snow free (lots of sun exposure). Trails were also relatively dry this afternoon, prior to the rain arriving. Ledges were generally dry with some minor wet spots. Some avoidable standing water in a couple of lowpoints, and some mud on the Whiteface Mountain Trail. |
