 | Comments: |
Just a thin monorail and dusting of snow for the walk along the river up to the summer NT parking lot. Some flow ice and trap door ice in the NT trail. The eroded herd path that avoids the major crossings was pretty icy with some snow on top. The one larger brook crossing here wasn't quite rebridged but will be soon. The bottom of FW was lumpy but had good coverage. Trail improved up higher in the glades were there was more new and old snow. Single digit temps and wind. Thanks Ali |
