Lovely day for a heavy pack test run and no speed records. Up and back Dicey's Mill which is all well-tracked.. good as it gets in winter. Snowshoes up for the televators and traction, micros just to get off the summit in a mostly vertical orientation, and back to snowshoes the rest of the way down so as not to dig up the trail as the sun warmed it up. Only saw two other folks, both pleasant.
Side note as viewed from Dicey's Mill trail: Tom Wiggins and the East Spur below P summit both had a set of old tracks, but nothing recent. |
