 | Comments: |
We barebooted until 3,100’ where we donned snowshoes and used the televators. Summit had 7-8” of snow. Kept them on past where we had initially donned them. Removed them near the bottom of Fire Wardens and went back to bare boots. Snowshoes were very welcome today and I’m sure will be needed tomorrow after the snow finally ends.
No tracks coming up Hale Brook or Lend-a-Hand. |
