 | Comments: |
Another few inches the other night has helped to keep this a great snowshoe trail, fluffy over moderately packed base. Snowshoes all the way, obviously.
Much more hospitable on top than it was on Mon. Summit temp @ 12:30p.m. 24F, light winds, visibility good to Moosilauke (cool to look and know you were there yesterday), Franconias & Presi's, just a bit hazy. Plenty of gray coming from south and west. My 50th Camel's Hump summit in this century - I need to count Jetty's sometime. 1:50 up, 3:09 roundtrip. |
