 | Comments: |
all the trails were well packed, some used spikes to start off but changed to snowshoes for the BW. the snow was rather heavy and sticky with all the warm weather. The bushwhack was perfectly clear, not issues at all finding and following it. The BW does bring you up over 3400' but it comes out on the isolation trail about .5 miles from the final river crossing. The final crossing is well bridged. |
