Planned to attempt the Metacomet Ridge from Route 20 to Phelps Road, a 10-mile out-and-back with K2 this morning. Our thinking was to get out early enough so that the frozen, solid earth wouldn't turn to slippery mud as we motored our way along the spine.
We managed just fine, and the earth was just starting to warm enough to get slippery during our last 15 or so minutes on course, so no big deal and our timing was fine.
Miles 1 & 9, Copper/Peak Mountain with Talcott Mountain in the distance
