Date hiked: 12/31/16
Trail conditions: Eyebrow trail - broke trail through two feet of powder on top of crunchy icy snow and ice floes. Most challenging part was the steep section by the cables but it was doable. AT - trail broken all the way to the summit. Some challenging icy sections.
Special equipment required: snowshoes with cleats
Comments: all the trees above the junction with the Eyebrow were completely covered in snow. The trail south from the summit ridge toward Speck Pond had been broken out, as far as I could see from the junction. Very little wind on top.
