Whiteface and Passaconway
Blueberry Ridge Dicey Mill
Crunchy ice going up Blueberry to Whiteface so microspikes are best. As soon as you travel on towards Passaconway it gets really deep and really drifty so snowshoes are a must. I was breaking trail up to my waist on a 200 foot section up towards the ridge. Snowshoes until top of Passaconway and then back to micros for the descent. If you are doing the loop dont do it unless you have snowshoes. Special thanks to Keith and Eva for bringing me my snowshoe that got caught on a branch and I had no idea. Great to meet you and leapfrog all day. |
