Comments: Long Trail: Duxbury Road to Montclair Glen

Carried snowshoes but lucked out and was able to microspike the entire hike today without postholing. A little bit of tricky route finding through open hardwoods about 1/2 mile above Bamforth Ridge Shelter. Some loose "ice balls" coming off the south side of the Hump required careful foot placement.

From Canada to Duxbury Road I have met 3 hikers. On a Saturday on Camel's Hump, I met 16.
