Comments
Comments: Put on snowshoes for bushwhack through the glades and kept them on until reaching the same spot on the way out. Hopefully with the snow coming though over the next 24 hours it will be great for snowshoes from car car for whoever gets there to break it out later this week.

Ran into a nice group of six on the way through the glades who set a nice track. Our route will be gone by tomorrow but the glades are always a beautiful spot to break out, enjoy!

Nice day out in a winter wonderland :)
