Comments
Comments: A quick hike of a few peaks near Mt Major as my dog continues his Belknap trace (63%). Spikes were not deployed as there were only minor, easily avoidable ice patches on this route. FWIW a few hikers were coming from West Quarry and said they needed theirs.

Happy new year to all. Thanks for all the trip reports in 2023!
