| Comments: |
Lots of snow, it just gets deeper as you go up. The snow on the ledges is very soft and unstable making it difficult to get a good foothold. We used a rope for one section both going up and coming down. The trail is starting to get packed but needs more snowshoers. All tracks stopped at the summit, none going over to Passaconaway or down the McCrillis trail |
