Lost and Found: The stuff Trish found is still at the trailhead 
 
Comments
Comments: not much different since the excellent report Trish and clan posted yesterday. Trace of snow starting out to maybe an inch up high. The mud on Gale River Tr is frozen. put on spikes at garfield ridge junction. there is a fair amount of ice on this stretch of the garfield ridge trail; wouldn't be fun without some kind of traction. left spikes on til partway down gale river trail. nice day for my first solo of galehead.
