 | Dog-Related Notes: |
well until these trails get packed out, which due to the remoteness I wonder if they ever do...I would consider leaving Fido at home, unless they love bounding thru 2 feet of snow |

The first part of Carlton Notch is broke by skiers, but still very soft. Castleview Loop is broken. My friend led the way for pretty much all of it, which I am thankful for cuz I might've had to spend the night. There is A LOT of snow up there. Where the ski path leaves Carlton Notch, we broke out to the ridge. Nothing broken out up on top, coming or going and I was gassed so we turned around. With plenty of daylight left, we headed to the village and broke out bits & pieces as we cleaned up some redlining chads around Mossy Glen. |
