Scar ridge - a question.

Little East Pond (yuk)

I did not find the Little East Pond route to be so bad. Yah, there were blowdowns and it was soggy and foggy, but hey, you run into that sometimes. I've been in lots worse. The main thing about that route is that getting to the top of the ridge, you have a tendency to end up too far to the northeast, so you have to keep trending to the left as you go up, or plan on travelling along the ridge for a ways. It wasn't terribly long. I'd go that way again.

WE DID IT!
Took 6 hours and we went in from Big Rock. I will post a detailed trip report on the trip report page for all you getting ready to go. The brook crossing was tricky, but we made it over both times and the for the most part we stayed dry.
The snow and ice at the top were minimal. Big Rock is the way to go I believe after this trip.
