I took the kids up Whitecap today since they were off school for April vacation. We brought microspikes just in case but did not need them. The trail is dry down low and there are some patches of mud that are easily avoided. Once we hit the granite there was quite a bit of water on the trail. Some we avoided and some we just slopped though. The weather was clear and the views were wonderful! No ice at all anymore. |
