Comments: We had excellent weather for this planned hike wich made the 14 hrs on trail seem not long enough. Many thanks to those that tracked out this route the week before. We were able to bareboot up to Zealand Hut where we put on snowshoes and kept them on until the former Camp 16 site. We could have taken them off for the ridge along Bondcliff as there was lots of exposed rock but never did. There was lots of pushing through branches but the track was easy to follow except for about 100 yards in the Bond/West Bond col. Fortunately the woods were open and we were quickly back on track.
