I did these peaks in 2 days. Really falling in love with the NH north country. Was in 8-18 inches of snow on all treks. Average 8-10inches. Fun!! Snowshoeing is my favorite event!!
Had to weave in and out of numerous blowdowns, many step overs, looked for herd paths (love this, so fun), Used many logging roads, and navigated around some cliff bands. Biggest issue was staying dry, impossible. There was 2-4 inches of snow on everything I trekked through. The closer I got to the goal the deeper the snow. I`m not sure where I am on the list, but when I`m done, one column will end with a zero!! Woohoo!! |
