Comments
Comments: HB and I did a one day Zealand to Lincoln Woods traverse. 5AM to 5 PM. Lots of people
Out today.

There is some snow patches left but the only one that even slightly slowed us down was a stretch between Guyot and Zealand, it was slick but plenty of opportunity to go around taking your time. All snow will likely be caput by next weekend.
