I see a lot of reports of nice fluffy snow concealing ice. I was thinking of going snowshoeing this weekend (Jan 28-9). I don't have crampons or an axe.
Is there anyplace you think may be snowshoe-able this weekend in NH or perhaps MA-midstate trail?
I've been looking at a few trail reports. I'll continue to look at the NOAA maps. Of course the NOAA map doesn't distinguish between 4 inches of ice with 3 inches of snow on top vs. 7 inches of snow.
 
I know the mount washington area got about 8 inches last night - thats what the summit got I think - so not sure about lower elevations. I would think you could shoe on some of the lower trails that branch off tuckerman ravine trail - great gulf might be an option as well.
 
18 inches reported at Carter Notch hut
28 inches in Tuckermans
22 at the Highland center in Crawford
20 at Zealand
22 at Lonesome lake
