Winslow trail was smooth and hard packed all the way to the summit. Small patches of ice after half way rock. The summit was a bit widy today as we hunkered down behind one of the summit buildings to enjoy lunch before heading out. Barlow trail was getting a little soft in the early afternoon on our decent. Very nice trail, and a beautiful protected forest. Barlow trail had amazing views of the presidentials and Franconia ridge. We loved the evergreen and hardwood section on this trail. A top 10 hike for us. Spikes start to finish. |
