| Comments: |
Rattle river warrants snowshoes from the shelter up. The trail was fairly churned up from barebooting. The upper trail had some bigger postholes. Snow was getting very wet. Kenduskeag had a single out and back set of bareboot tracks; postholes ranged from 6-18 in. Several bare rock sections, but mainly significant snow with required snowshoes. Both trails should look a better with my out/back snowshoes tracks. |
