Trail: Mt. Cube Trail

Conditions: Ice - Black, Wet Trail, Ice - Blue, Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular, Wet/Slippery Rock, Ice - Breakable Crust, Snow/Ice - Frozen Granular, Snow/Ice - Monorail (Stable), Snow - Spring Snow

“Nice hike from 25a up Mt. Cube Trail. lots of ice flows and frozen monorail. Microspikes the whole way up. Some spots of bare ground and mud. Ice Flows about 2400 feet were pretty consistent, watch your footing and bring hiking poles for stability. Overall a good trip aside from the water crossings.”

Trail: Mt. Cube Trail

Conditions: Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular, Snow - Unpacked Powder

“Trail was well packed to the snowmobile trail, and marginally tracked to the beginning of switchbacks around 2.3 miles. I broke out the switchbacks to about 2600’ when I hit my time limit. I also skewed off trail due to a blowdown at that point too. Snow wasn’t drifted at my turnaround point, just powder about 10-14 inches deep. AT blazes become fewer and further apart above the switchbacks- just a little bit of guesswork to stay on trail. Highly recommend snowshoes if going beyond Bracket Brook.”

Trail: Cross Rivendell Trail

Conditions: Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular, Snow - Unpacked Powder

“After a terrific morning/lunch at Dartmouth Skiway, figured I try for Cube on my way back. Trail was well-packed but churned up at times due to microspikers. Snow is only somewhat consolidated; snowshoes are the best option right now. Beautiful forest and snow on trees. Gorgeous distant views of Sunday Mtn and Smarts Mountain.”
