Comments
Comments: The weather was great. Sadly, there were no views at the summit. We saw one other hiking group and a group of trailrunners.

Trail: The first two miles were bony. The next miles had some minor drifts. The section upto North Kinsman was packed. The ridge between North and South had more snowdrifts. Snowshoes would've been helpful but not necessary (but after the upcoming snowstorm, you'd definitely need them!). Meow
