Caribou from Bog Road
We used a gps to find the trail as when you enter the woods it is hard to tell where the trail is. No one on the trail in a while. Some drifting in higher climbs; fell into 3 and 4 foot crevices created by drifts in a few places. We broke trail all the way and deviated a lot from the trail. A usually easier hike was very strenuous one but we made it to the top where the views were amazing and so were the winds. Snowshoes a must. |
