| Comments: |
A quick up and back to catch the sunset. The MHT is mostly dry with some minor muddy sections. Any ice that may have been hanging around was obliterated by today's 78 degree weather. In the 60s and pleasant on the tower with a comfortable breeze. They are still snowboarding on the slopes. |
