 | Comments: |
This route had seen recent travel (like on Saturday and maybe even on Sunday. Higher up (especially between N and S Twin) there was drifting but the trail was easy to follow, and had a nice base. Saw one young woman and her dog on S Twin, she was doing an out and back.....a hearty thank you to her for breaking out the Frost Trail. And one man who had skied up Gale River Trail a ways, and then snowshoed the rest of the way to Galehead. |
