 | Comments: |
Easy ski up to summer parking area. Spikes or bare boots adequate on snow sidewalk up to Carragain Brook, but many drainages down to Whiteface Brook are still wet. Generally easy to hop across but snowshoes might be challenging on this section. Above that snowshoes were helpful as the snow was less consolidated. Beautiful views from the tower today! Ski down from summer trailhead was well groomed by snowmobiles and fast! |
