Gray and windy today with temps at 32 F when starting. Lower trail was dry with a little bit of snow in the woods. Some mud on the trail but very avoidable by stepping around. Above 1800', started to pick up more snow. Above 2200' snow was packed on the trail, a little slippery but honestly didn't need any traction with a little care. Very windy at the summit with temps hovering around 40 F. On the way down, things had warmed up a tad, much of the snow on the trail was melting, took it slow to avoid slipping on muddy/snowy/wet rock. Air was very clear and could see all the way to Mt. Kearsarge from the summit. |
