Albany Mountain Trail (southern approach), snowmobile trail, bushwhack
I broke out the first mile which to my surprise was broken out by snowmobile trail by the time I returned. I skipped the next mile of the trail and took the snowmobile trail that paralleled it since it was broken out. I then broke trail up to the summit. About 3-4 feet of snow near the summit. Took the bushwhack down to the snowmobile trail and headed out. |
