Comments
Comments: Second one up after the storm on Thursday, but broke trail for part of the way from the second overlook to Crawford. A bit hard to find the path from there, but figured it out.

Snowshoes end-to-end, same with the other 4 climbers I saw; wouldn't have been easy with spikes.

Beautiful day out, clear blue sky and not too windy at the top, where the views towards Crawford Notch and the Presidential Range were fantastic.

Might be firm enough to try spikes today, but best to bring snowshoes just in case.
