| Comments: |
Went up the Eyebrow and down AT. Dry trail to start. Some mud on Eyebrow on way up, but much more on the AT on the way down. Ice started at about 2700 feet and put in the spikes until got back to the same point. Stable monorail started about 3300 feet. Could manage without spikes if you wanted to spend a lot of time in the trees, but why bother. |
