| Comments: |
After Mansfield, I drove south to pick up this nearby peak. I was surprised to find so many still heading up with me-a solo snowshoer and 3 skiers. Met more at the clearing and near the summit, having come up Burrows.
Trail was in great shape after all the use today. The summit, unfortunately was also socked in, so the stay was short. The trip down was quick, 1:15 from top to car. |
