 | Comments: |
Trail is solid, but littered with postholes along the sides. Spikes were fine today. Was only going to head up to the hut, but took two steps on the Cut-Off trail and sank to my waist both times. Opted to head back down and bag Mount Willard instead.
Lots of people out on the trail today to pack it down even more. |
