Date of Hike: Saturday, January 6th
Trail Conditions: Packed powder on lower levels, loose powder over packed trail on upper sections. In early am found trail snowed in below tent platforms and broke it out up to Liberty summit -whewwww!
On way out counted 20 + heads so trail should be well packed by nightfall.
Special Equipment Required: Snowshoes (with "bite")& poles, crampons could help in loose powder but not necessary for today.
Comments: Franconia Ridge trail heading North to Falling Waters Trail still unbroken. Towards Flume unbroken early am but several groups on the way up indicated that they were heading over. Also a group of folks were heading up the Flume Slide trail so the full loop may be broken out by the end of the day.
