Comments
Comments: Kind of a damp day to be out. No snow on the lower elevations. Very wet trails today! Once we got >3500' we put on micros. Lots of post holing. It's hard to follow the monorail. Kept the micros on till we started on the Imp Trail. It's kind of that boarder-line time of year between wearing snow shoes or not. If you take it easy and watch your step, you can get away with micros.
