It was a nice and windy day out with Slowshoes and Summerset. The high winds had caused some decent drifting on the Rollins Trail. Some route finding was necessary as the snowshoe trail had been completely blown over. A watchful eye was necessary on the Rollins Trail as the spruce are out to get you. Watch your eyes and your head. Excellent views into and across the bowl today as well.
There were a good many people out today and all were wearing snowshoes!!!! The snowshoe track along Dicey Mills and the Rollins Trail is in excellent shape at the moment. |
