| Comments: |
Icy sections especially along the Bicentennial trail. I wore my microspikes most as the way; otherwise I would have been taking them on and off every few minutes. No snow and some parts of the trail along Jack Frost and High Meadow were completely free of ice. Portions of the High Meadow trail were very poorly marked and we had to backtrack a couple of times to get back onto the trail. |
