| Comments: |
Trail was broken out by snowmobiles all the way to the summit. I wore snowshoes but the trail was so well packed that you may be able to get away with barebooting the whole way. I made a small attempt to go over to Owl's Head (not the 4000 footer) but the trail was not broken out and very hard to follow. After losing the trails 3 times and getting stuck in 2 spruce traps over the first 100 feet I figured it wasn't meant to be. |
