Great day on Isolation today. Spectacular views. The lower part of the trail is a little boney with some open flows. These flows were easy to navigate but there were a lot of them. Used snowshoes car to car so the trails are well packed. Spikes may be ok to Engine Hill tomorrow but snowshoes afterwards. Lots of deep snow off the track. Great way to spend Christmas. |
