Conditions: couple of inches at the trailhead along with some water & mud, as you got higher as expected snow got deeper. One or two trees down, easily passed, several widow makers still hung up ready to let loose. near the top of Cabot one drift was about knee high.

Special Required Equipment: warm clothes, heavy waterproof boots as footing was kind of tough, enough snow to cover some rocks, not enough to keep you from sliding off angled rocks or covered roots. snowshoes from the Horn spur path could have been helpful but not bad without. thin balaclava was nice to have when goind downhill through hardwoord forest

Comments: Where was the mostly sunny day? light flurries & blowing snow all day, visbility was only a couple of hundred feet so I skipped the Horn which would have had the best view but also the toughest footing. Still a nice day. Mill may be clsoed soon but some logging appears to be going on (maybe it's from earlier in the year) so maybe it will saty open longer, check with USFS.
