 | Comments: |
3 words: Postholing in snowshoes. Too much melt is making this trail a mess and the water crossings may not be bridged much longer so be careful! The bushwhack is off, so the mileage is a bit longer, but it's easy to follow (although there are 2 as of my trip down. Someone else went a different way, but the 2 meet up). No view, but a good day on a mountain. |
