Mt. Klem via Round Pond Trail, Red Trail, and bushwack
Date of Hike: Sunday, February 24, 2008
Trail Conditions: Packed powder
Special Equipment Required: Snowshoes
Comments: Parking lot on Grant Road plowed, room for about 3 vehicles. Round Pond Trail broken out and decently packed through fields, but snowshoes recommended to prevent postholing. Second half of Round Pond Trail packed by snowmobile. Middle portion of this section a bit wet for a hundred yards or so, but a packed trail goes up the embankment around it.
I broke out the Red Trail from Round Pond to Mt. Klem - recommend snowshoes. Portion of the trail that cuts due north is not well signed (I lost the trail at that point, so I bushwacked to the summit, then found the trail on the other side). I backtracked down the Red Trail and drew some arrows in the snow where I went wrong.
Round Pond Link not broken out. White Trail from Klem to Rand not broken out. Red Trail from Klem to Mt. Mack not broken out.
No blowdowns.
