    Cannon Mountain - Environmental Damage, Hiking Prohibition, and SB217

    Cannon Mountain - Environmental Damage, Hiking Prohibition, and SB217

    Moosilauke via Glencliff, Carriage Road 12/23

    Trail conditions: wet sticky snow 2-4 inches down below..started to hit ice flows around 3000 feet which were tricky under the snow. Very bony conditions in places and a fair amount of ice in others. higher up the snow deepened and there was less ice. Carriage road had -6-8 inches new with some...
