Great day out on the trail. There was a light ~1-2 inch dusting of snow overnight but the trail under was hard packed. Trail was very easy to follow. Used micro spikes the whole time which worked well. No post holing (yay). There isn’t much of a view unless you climb the tower at the end. Brought the dog and he had a blast. Saw a handful of over people coming up on the way down. Didn't use the snowshoes once. |
