    Hancocks via the normal loop 4/17/2009

    Wore microspikes from the car although there were a few bare spots in the first 1/2 mile. Brook crossings no issue but boots should be waterproof if you want to keep your feet dry. We ascended south. Coming down south would have required crampons or at least some very deliberate tree to tree...

    Jefferson via Jewell and Gulfside -- 4/14/09

    A few bare spots down low other than that good firm snow with little evidence of prior post holing. Wore micro-spikes until we hit the snow fields where I opted for crampons. Sarah stayed with her Hillsound crampons, a slightly beefier version of micro-spikes. Great day with little wind and...

    WMNF Trail Maintenance

    Thanks for the support I am glad to see all of the interest. With winter quickly closing in I am afraid that trail maintenance is done for the year. I will keep a list of all of you who have shown interest and get back to you in the Spring as well as repost to the community at large. During...

    WMNF Trail Maintenance

    Clarification Thanks for the interest out there. I probably should have waited until the Spring when it is really time to do the bulk of Level 1 maintenance. If any one who is interested to reply to me directly at [email protected] or post to this thread that would be good. I will...
