Comments
Comments: After parking and we searched for an approach to Norris. We decided to climb to the railroad tracks from the bridge. We followed the railbed for a short distanced and then ducked into the woods. We trekked past a vacant log cabin, through some brambles and then began our climb through open woods in about 3-5" of powder snow.
We found the summit, signed the register and followed our tacks back to the RR tracks. A beautiful, clean day to grab another of the NEK highest 100.
