 | Comments: |
Mandatory trip to the North Pole for the Old Mountaineer’s single season project. Had a fun crew up there and despite the day staying colder and snowier than forecast we had fun and accomplished our mission. Our friends followed a swamp donkey out York Pond Road for about a mile when leaving. Snowshoes are the right choice, there’s a nice track out there right now but it’s still relatively soft. I’d also expect drifting up top since we were snowed on pretty consistently our whole walk out. |
