| Comments: |
The trails had been broken out prior to today. We did the short cut from the Basin parking lot instead of Whitehouse, and even that was broken out. Looked like someone had gone over toward the Flume Slide from the Liberty Spring Trail and it looked like someone had been between Liberty & Flume. Trail was soft and snowshoes were appropriate today. Most of the people we saw were using them. Sticky snow down below in the afternoon which should firm up with some cooler temps. |
