| Comments: |
The trail is about as perfect as it can be. We brought snowshoes expecting deep snow and postholes, but instead there is a track that looks like it was made by 15-20 experienced hikers wearing snowshoes! Our snowshoes went for a ride. It's firm enough for microspikes, and no ice. We also saw two skiers who skinned up and skied down and they loved the conditions too. |
