Trail conditions on AT - central MA!

[frytz]

I plan on hiking the AT from Pittsfield Rd to North Wilcox starting Apr 21. Does anyone know what the current trail conditions are (snow/ice, etc)? And can anyone who hikes that area on the weekend of Apr 19 update me on what to expect!? Thanks in advance!

Judging by yesterday's conditions on Mt Monadnock, any snow still remaining in ten days will be of no significance. Areas that are both shady and hard-packed may be a bit icy early in the morning - I'd bring something like microspikes just in case, but you'll probably be fine with bare boots.
