One widowmaker on Lonesome Lake Trail, just before Hi Cannon junction. Two blowdowns remaining on Fishin' Jimmy. Two blowdowns on northern end of the Cannonballs section of Kinsman Ridge Trail (prior to NE Cannonball though). Hi Cannon Trail had multiple blowdowns, as did the Dodge Cut Off. The trails hiked on Cannon are all in need of brushing. |

 | Comments: |
Trails all pretty wet - sun didn't break through at all up high until maybe an hour before sunset. Some black ice near the summit of North Kinsman, as well as a fine black ice glaze all around South Kinsman. Micros and crampons didn't leave pack, though. |
