Well the whites were calling for some high winds! So i went to Vermont on a peak not as exposed as trails I wanted to do. I barebooted til I got cold and pup on layers and spikes around 3,200’. There is some ice on the entire trail but lots of bare rocks too. I saw 12 people and 3 dogs for the day which was way more than I expected. The trails were mostly ice and then higher up nice sideway of firm snow. The summit was a little windybut I was able to stand up there for about 10 minutes with some rocks cutting the wind while I soaked up the sun and some undercast! My hair and eyelashed were turning white but I was warm with my layers for sure. A quick up and back under 3 hours which is always fun for my 1 way 3 hours drive lol. Glad to have gotten out! |
