A great day, warm and windless with a fantastic winter wonderland of trees completely covered with snow up high. The trail is a packed snowshoe tough and had a light dusting on it. Hikers choice for footwear. We chose snowshoes and the three solo hikers we saw wore spikes. Alot of Quasimodo action getting through the very numerous sagging limbs and leaners. Congratulations to Guy on #42 for his W70+. It's Groundhog day for me as I need six more Cabots. |
