Nice day to be out. No wind at all and about 10-20 degrees. Lots of fresh snow. Had to break trail most of the Hancock Loop as only one guy a head of us. Snowshoes the whole day. A lot of effort getting up North Hancock with slippery fresh powder and very steep. Took a few spills coming down South and a bit sore today but it was a beautiful winter wonderland.
Trails now broken out nicely with about 10 people on the trail today. |
