West Rattlesnake
Holderness, NH
Trailheads, measurements, times, distances, and maps are all approximate and relative to the hike(s) as shown below.
Looking up the Old Bridle Path
Route: Old Bridle Path
Old Bridle Path was generally packed powder with some areas of drifting. I wore snowshoes roundtrip due to the drifting, but the trail should be barebootable at this point. All connecting trails had not seen any use and look to be well endowed with powder, so would require snowshoes at this juncture.
Decent sunrise, though a bit cold with temperatures hovering around zero to single digits below zero.
