| Comments: |
Gorge Brook trail in the morning was spikable the whole way. The summit was almost all bare. On the way down the trails were soft and slippery and there were beginning to be a lot of post holes from the days hikers. Snowshoes down definitely would be beneficial on the way down. With the amount of post holing, warm weather and rain, I'm sure the trails will be trashed for this coming weekend. |
