Bear booted to summit, Spur trail starts Southwest of summit and about 50 feet north of a cycloned-fenced utility structure. It took awhile to find as I was looking for it further south and following a yellow herd path, and spruce trapping. Turned around and eventually found the correct spur trail leading to the AT junction. Again, for the most part the recent activity on the AT trail was barely discernable ,being filled in with blowing, drifting snow, but the AT trail was well marked here and easy to follow. At trail junction for Spaulding, no activity further south on the AT towards Abraham. |
