We were a NH Chapter AMC group of 7. The trail had not been broken out so it was a good experience for us to practice the technique of having the lead person take 50 steps, then stepping off to let the next in line take 50 steps and stepping off to go to the rear of the line. Sometimes it is tempting to go further as first in line, but the thing to remember is that second in line works nearly as hard and might need to not co-lead, lead as long, and the break at the end of the line is welcome, indeed.
We called it a day at Lake Solitude, though our original plan had been to go to the ledges. All others we saw on the trail were wearing snowshoes. No exceptions. Well, except for the dogs.
