It might be easier to list the conditions that we did not see on trail than to list the ones that we did. That means it's spring in NH. You get everything from a dry Trail to mud to solid snow to mashed potatoes. We started fairly early and the trail was very stable but by the time we came down it was starting to get soft with a number of post holes. Your luck may vary. We hiked in bare boots at the beginning and my first spikes once we had the icy sections. |
