A single microspike was hanging on a tree on Hi-Cannon around 3500’. We left it there because we weren’t sure if its owner would be coming back down that trail. |

Glorious day on Cannon!
Left the snowshoes in the car, and that was 100% the right call. Trails are super packed, and too bony for snowshoes. There was not one single spot where I thought to myself “man, this would be better if I had my snowshoes”.
Spikes door-to-door, and trails are firm and fast. Not totally filled in yet, but you can’t really ask for better conditions for a pre-Thanksgiving hike. Let’s hope this a harbinger of the season to come! |
