A gorgeous trail on any clear day. Snow is thin in just a few patches close to the parking lot, but after that the snow was in good shape. I used crampons and didn't bother to take my snowshoes out of my pack.

Nice hike for a Sunday afternoon. We actually wanted to go to the third peak but it got so cloudy on the way up that we couldn't bother to go any further. We still got some nice views on the way back. Parts of the trail are quite   more...

nice views and I don't get tired of them. The peak was windy and refreshing. The snow was hard and no more fun slides. No markers beyond Brockton Point. If you haven't been there before, it might be challenging to find the main trail   more...

late evening/night hike. The trail is only now marked to Brockton Point. The trail was well packed and it seemed to me that many people didn't use snowshoes from their footprint track. I think the skiing season is over in Seymour as   more...
