Trail: Benton Trail, Mt. Moosilauke

Date Hiked: 11/17

Conditions: Noxen Raod was closed from Tunnel Brook Rd to the trailhead. Tunnel Brook was difficult to pass, beginning of the trail was soft/muddy. 1" of snow on trail after Tunnel Brook crossing up to about 6" of powder at about 1 mile.

Special Required Equipment: One person tried snowshoes with mixed results. Traction devices (i.e. stabilicers) helped on the way down. Crampons would have been useless.
