It was a gorgeous day and I needed to be in easy biking distance of where we are staying in North Conway. Large portions of the trail in the wooded sections were quite slippery if they had slabs rocks. I definitely had to take my time. I was surprised there was still patches of snow on the south side of the summit - not much, but enough for novelty value and some late-season snowballs. There was mud but I was expecting it. Gorgeous views for sure!! |
