the trail was well packed out with 3 to 5 inches of new snow on it. I bareboote up to the summit but used my snowshoes on the way down to cover up the tracks. On the way down met three UNH student who wore snowshoes. So, the trail is well packed out now. Used a lot of energy whacking snow from the low hanging branches and the many saplings bending into the trail. About a mile from the summit I put some dead branches where some previous hikers have turned right. The true trail heads down to the left a bit before it heads up again. |
