| Comments: |
Day tripped over to upside down NH to close out Tom’s VT portion of the W67 over 70. Solid company with Eliot, Taylor, and Larry. We barebooted to the point where the trail starts to climb, snowshoes from that point up to the summit and back down to the cars. Couple of deep postholes that we tried to fill in and it was snowing pretty hard when we got down. The ride home to Lincoln was harder than the hike. |
