Burnt Meadow Mountain via Burnt Meadow Mountain Trail
Date of Hike: Sunday, December 28, 2008
Trail Conditions: Spring snow, wet ledge, dry ledge, slush, ice
Special Equipment Required: See comments
Comments:
Route 160 parking lot *is* plowed.
Trail was well packed (though there were plenty of different sets of meandering tracks) up to the last 200 or so vertical feet. From there, the rocks/ledges were mostly exposed and somewhat wet.
Right now, snowshoes are recommended to get to that point. Above there, it can be barebooted to the summit (mostly bare as well). Once the temperatures drop and the snow sets up, the trail will likely be barebootable with perhaps light traction.
