breaking trail to Mount Tripyramid in New Hampshire

Ten of us joined an AMC group of five to hike North Tripyramid via the Pine Bend Brook Trail in February 2007. Our 30-snowshoe trail-tramping machine heads up the mountain. It takes 7 hours to go in 4 miles and up 2800 feet to the summit. Good thing we have 15 hikers to rotate through the exhausting lead position, breaking trail through 2 feet of heavy new snow.
