TIme for the standard reminder
With all the warm weather and lack of snow on the ground south of the whites, this is the time of the year when folks look out their windows down in Mass or southern NH, hop in the car for a spring hike with minimal gear and proceed to get in trouble due to lack of gear. I woke in the north country to fresh show in the yard and trees with high winds and cold temps this morning (3/9) . It may be 50 degrees on Sunday, but you still need to gear if you are doing summits. Even with an early warm up there may be enough snow to require snowshoes as the snow warms up.
