Comments
Comments: We went up Kelley which was hard packed, firm, no postholes, brook had lots of lovely ice formations, to the summit on Lawrence [note: true summit is a bushwhack] where we saw moose tracks in trail and then down Old Mast which had lots of post holes but got better as we descended.
