Comments: CANNONBALLS!
Started the day a bit after 7:30 from the Cannon Tram Parking Area. Kinsman Ridge Trail was very firm and it was cold out. Made it to Mt Cannon summit inside cafeteria area at 9am. Changed and dried sweaty clothes. Continued to Mt Cannon summit then to the Cannonballs section. There was 6 to 8 inches of new snow on this section. Drifting snow around West Cannonball made route finding a challenge. After the junction with "Fishing Jimmy" the trail was tracked out again. On North and South Kinsman, amazing views of Cannon and Franconia Ridge. It was another blue bird days, but chilly in the morning. My partner even made it to tennis practice on time.
