 | Comments: |
Trail was frozen going up but we post holed quite a bit. We lost the trail many times on the ridge but managed to summit Breadloaf without too much trouble. Heading over to Wilson we created a bit of a maze (sorry) we turned back when we reached our turnaround time. We'll get Wilson next time! Great day with the esteemed Professor John Carter. |
