Mount Washington --- Great Wall Trail

Overcast and about 58 degrees at the trailhead. The Mt. Washington trail up to the Great Wall turn off was in great shape, minimal mud / water in the trail with a couple of minor patches of snow.

At the Great Wall turn off, there was considerable water over the trail and large snow patches. Within a quarter mile of the turn, the trail was now totally covered in snow. The snow was very stable, firm and required no special footware (ok, I wouldn't recommend tennis shoes).

By the time we got to the NF-350 road there was 4' - 5' of snow on the trail/road. We went about a 1/4 mile each direction on the road, then turned around and came back.

I would expect winter to be here for at least another 2 - 3 weeks unless we get some real heat...
