“Beautiful morning for these two. Bareboots until the boulders then snowshoes. Ladder was still a bit sketchy but managed to ascend with ss and opted for micros descending. Thankyou Chip for the ice ax work on monday. It definitely helped!”
Trail: Zealand Road, Sugarloaf Trail
Conditions: Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular
“Trail well packed; spikes were fine. Used an ice axe to chop out somewhat better footing on the ladder, but the remaining ice on the steps is still thick, and tumbles a definite risk.”
Trail: Zealand Road, Sugarloaf Trail
Conditions: Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular, Snow/Ice - Postholes
“Hiked up to Middle Sugarloaf summit. Amazing views of the Presidential Mountains. The Zealand Road and the Sugarloaf Trail is nicely packed down. I wore micro spikes the whole way. The trail to North Sugarloaf Mountain from the trail junction is broken out. I did not venture that way though. There were no other hikers on the trail today, except for a few snow mobiles.”
