I know this has been brought up in the past, I was just wondering if there was any new (as in, say, post-Irene) information about hitting Mendon and continuing to the L.T. for Killington/Pico. Sounds like the 3rd carin (if it is still there?) a touch over 1/2 mile above the first on the logging road (at the sharp switchback - is this the one shown at ~3100 feet on the topos?) is the "normal" route these days. Then a mixture of herd paths (maybe) and general 'whacking in a more or less WSW direction (mag West perhaps) to the cone up the East peak, and somewhere in the vicinity of the East peak a herd path will carry over to the canister. Return to the 3rd carin on the road, and continue up the road, taking the right fork up a short rocky streambed-like stretch (versus down the 10ft embankment to a bog) and that will lead to the L.T. near Cooper Lodge. I've found a few older TR's discussing this route and it doesn't sound too bad overall. Any gotchyas I should know about? Changes in this route in the last couple years (haven't found much non-winter info on this route since ~2010) to be aware of? Sounds like from what I've read that the actual 'whacking on this route should be fairly short (~1/2 mile each way from the road to Mendon is about it, if that even?), I'm trying to get a handle on what kind of day I'm looking at. Thanks in advance.
