 | Comments: |
A great day to be on the trails, Blue Hills are an excellent training ground. I would recommend light tractions like microspikes if doing the skyline trail, as there are many steep sections with ice flows and there is always several inches of packed powder. Snowshoes would be superfluous, barebooting would make for some "interesting" descents. |
