Comments
Comments: a little bit of every thing out there. dry, wet, ice, snow, sprinkles, sleet, sun, no wind--perfect! still @ least 4-5 feet of snow in some spots @ higher elev, step off mono and posthole a mile. saw about 5 other groups out. bring traction or risk some serious sliding. dry below--wet in between--snow-ice above.
