Gilford, NH

Late afternoon light on the Piper Whiteface Trail
Route: Piper Whiteface Trail, Whiteface Trail, (Whiteface Mountain summit), Whiteface Trail, Piper Whiteface Trail
Trail was dry with a tiny patch of minimal snow up high. Breakable crust over the large puddles on the jeep road portion. Otherwise, no ice to deal with - no need to carry traction for this trail right now.
Don't forget blaze orange! Encountered a friendly hunter on my jog out.
