Just a ';heads-up'; to folks planning on some late season hiking in Baxter State Park, including Mt Katahdin.
Over the weekend, the Park was forced to close ALL hiking trails above the treeline on Mt. Katahdin and the Traveler Mountain series because of snow and ice conditions.
News reports indicated that the closures were most likely temporary -- until the snow and ice melted, probably in a few days.
However, they urged anyone planning on hiking Katahdin or Traveler above the treeline to check first with Park Headquarters at 207-723-5140.
