Comments
Comments: Very little snow/ice today; no issue for now.

I chose to bushwhack out to the south peak of Eastman. There are various herd paths and cairns and a couple of views.

I decided to check out the Slippery Brook Glade, which is marked for skiing and follows the ridge to the north of the slippery brook tr. As expected, not great footing for hiking, but a nice alternate way down.
