| Comments: |
Friend and I broke trail(6 inches) from York Pond Trail to the Bunnell trail/Mount Cabot Trail junction. No ice=no traction on this hike, but snow shoes needed. We lost the trail a couple of times, but trail is now broken out. Temperatures varied from about 0-12 degrees. Cabot Cabin provided quick shelter for a late lunch. Trip took 7 hours. |
