This was the last hike with snow on the ground. Again I was short on time so I opted for something quick. It remained unseasonably cold for late March so I had to bundle up, and the snow on the trail was quite icy. This felt more like a January hike than a late March hike.
I parked in the Reeves Meadow parking area, and took the Pine Meadow Trail along the side of the Stony Brook, to the Stony Brook Trail and then to the Kakiat Trail. I then took the HTS Trail up Halfway Mountain the view. I then climbed back down, crossed the new bridge of the HTS trail over the brook, and then took the Pine Meadow Trail back.
