 | Comments: |
The trails threw me everything but the kitchen sink today: I started with micro-spikes only to change to snowshoes to be able to safety traverse the semi-frozen brook that forms the trail for much of the way. 3' deep holes in places on the Imp + North Carter trails, especially closer to the Carter-Moriah Trail. Carter-Moriah trail was solid, but with snow drifts.
Little traffic on the trail - it was nice to see a Boston AMC group out there! |
