Michelle on Dog Mountain:
“We had become so accustomed to the -12 weather of December that we all felt like we were snowshoeing on a balmy summer day. However, it wasn’t so warm as to have any issues with melting snow dropping down off of tree branches (or anywhere else) along this heavily forested trail. Seymour was absolutely packed with all the powder it could hold – beautiful but easy to see why there have been prevalent avalanche conditions. The Seymour advisory signs were posted as “Moderate” risk. Ahmad may have liked my snowshoes’ rooster tail show, but John truly had the Cadillac of snowshoes. Great views, great company.”
