Quite the variation today
Past the Mt Washington resort groups playing golf
started off with muddy trail conditions, and by the 4000 foot mark dealing with 1 to 1.5' of of unpacked snow
At least for now trail is broken
Traverse along the Gulf trail to Mt Clay dealing with 2-4' drifts
Declined a Mt Washington attempt
Missing snowshoe today
Me and everyone else
descended Jewell trail
All in all a great day ...bluebird
Congrats Kate C 1st winter ascent mt Jefferson |
