Comments
Comments: I gridded out isolation today on the first day of April. Conditions were great for this time of year. Both bushwacks were broken out and easy to follow. The snow was pretty stable overall and the postholing was minimal. We put our snowshoes on on the Iso express bushwack and kept them on for the rest of the day as it was softening up in the afternoon. There were a few swampy spots where the snow had melted but there were herd paths around them.
