Good stuff Ian. Tot sure is a workout. Skied Bretton Woods today. They've had 2 feet of snow in the last couple days so conditions were stellar.

Thanks Rich.

Yes, there are lots of ups and downs at TOT. Fortunately none of the climbs are too big. It was lots of fun.

Skiing sounds good too. 2 feet of new snow, can't beat that.

what is your preferred loop for the ToT?

I was banging around there this morning following the red trail out from rte 149 parking lot and got myself a bit disoriented even w/ the W. Barnstable trail map (ended up down by the airfield).

I'd like to head back next weekend better armed.

thanks

Here's some pictures to go along with Iain's video.

Jack as far as the route goes we got turned around a few times and had to refer to a map we brought along and the GPS mapping on my Blackberry to find our way. The red arrowed trail, and everything off of it, are all fantastic routes. If you know where North is and keep an ear out for the gun club and airport it is hard to get lost.
