 | Comments: |
Hancock Notch Trail and Hancock Loop Trail packed out. Only a few inches of snow cover so many rocks are exposed. We did not go to the Hancock summits but expect the conditions to be similar for the entire route. Cedar Brook Trail was unbroken. 4-6 inches of snow at start, 8+ inches at height of land. We began the whack at the wilderness boundary. |
