| Comments: |
On trail at 8:30, off at 11:30. Lower Tecumseh trail was a combination of stable monorail and mud. Upper trail was all stable monorail in great condition. The top loop was all beaten up with postholes and monorail deterioration. Sosman was softer with frequent postholes. Ski area was still mostly covered with 0-2 feet of soft slushy snow, with many grass patches; an easy descent. |
