Route Climbed: Heardpath from Wilmington Trail. Date Climbed: March 16th, 2002
My first winter assent of this peak which I did with a partner while comming down from Whiteface. There was alot of postholing (once went in all the way to my neck while wareing snowshoes) so we were glad we lugged our snowshoes all the way up Whiteface.
The weather was closed in so all we saw were trees and clouds and we had to use the map an compass to keep on the trail and we went off it once or twice. A good side trip non the less.
Just a note that there is no longer anything left of the sign on the Wilminton trail. Just a bolt in a dead tree. In summer you may have a problem to find the heardpath.
