Pine Bend Brook Trail: 4.5 miles
Total Miles: 9.6 (3,450 elevation gain)
Trip Report:
- On trail at 7:45am, finished at 12:15pm, temps in the mid 20's, no wind, cloudy day with no views
- Wore snowshoes the whole day, trail was well packed
- Pine Bend Brook Trail "is what it is." The trail follows a brook and bends around a forest full of pine trees
- The trail is pretty level until you enter the Sandwich Range Wilderness then it becomes steep to very steep near the top
- Didn't see anyone until came across a group of eight guys at the Scaur Ridge trail junction when I was descending. Saw five more people around the Sandwich Range boundry
- When I finished the hike I went online to check tomorrow's forecast on Mount Washington which will be a waste of a day but I noticed todays forecast for the summit had changed since last night and was in the clear with an undercast. If I had known this in the morning I would have hiked in Mount Washington!

ReplyDeletedid your camelback freeze?
ReplyDeleteThe camelback didn't freeze, the only part that freezes is the tube part when the temps are around zero
ReplyDeleteI don't have a scarf but I do have one of those fleece neck warmers which covers my neck up to above my nose, I always wear it, I just took it off for the photo I swear!
