| Comments: |
Old Mountain Road was generally a decent snowshoe track with a few open areas that had frozen over in the cooler temperatures. Snow was more of a frozen granular from the temperatures swings, so drifting has stopped.
Someone postholed Crawford Ridgepole very badly. There are still multiple feet of snowpack and it's not bootpacked. Please wear snowshoes! Your postholing is the winter hiking version of peeing on the toilet seat! |
