| Comments: |
Bare ground, limited ice at the outset. 3/4 of the way to the snowmobile trail, some snow with minor post-holing. On the snowmobile trail, packed like a sidewalk. Up to south peak and back towards north and down the snowmobile trail was soft so on went the snowshoes. No microspikes today. |
