Best Hiking Window

Wednesday evening through early Thursday morning offers the narrowest gap before deteriorating conditions arrive. Thursday and Friday bring moderate to heavy rain with high precipitation probability (83–66%), making those days poor choices. If hiking, an early Thursday morning start is the last viable window before conditions worsen significantly.

“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.”
