| Comments: |
bluebird day in the Whites ... herd path from Little River Road, North Twin Trail and Firewardens all have solid base, but afternoon sun warmed them up ... hillsounds w*rked well up North Twin in the morning, but snowshoes were better up Firewardens (also didn't want to bareboot the ski trail) ... fresh snow this saturday should add to snowshoe and ski goodness for a few days
