| Comments: |
Started on the Bee Line(take a right BEFORE the orange trail actually starts) and 1/3 of the way up took the left onto the Cross Link, then to the Express Route and onto the Main Trail and the summit. Headed down the Orange Trail for 1/10 of a mile and took the left onto the Bay View Trail for the rest of the way down.
These are well packed and shold have frozen hard that way before any pesky postholers followed our snowshoe tracks.
Love Mt Major! |
