Took Hancock Notch, Cedar Brook , Hancock Loop Trails.
Perfect clear day and trails were as if they were cleared with a snow blower. Bare booted to beginning of North Loop then used crampons the rest of the way. Coming down from South peak I was glad I had the crampons because without them having one slip would have been like going down an olympic luge track.
It took less than 20 minutes to decend from the top down to the loop junction while grasping for trees to slow me from getting out of control.Surprised to see only four people on the trails the whole day. Brook crossings were solid as a rock but it was funny to hear rushing water going by underneath.
