Comments
Comments: Great and long day exploring the McCrillis Trail. Not well blazed and not well traveled. Isis and I made good time to Whiteface and managed to get Passaconaway too. Met up with a few people and had fun in the snow. A little turned around on the way out and managed to get back on trail and safely out to the trail head. Got the peaks and the red lines.
