 | Comments: |
Microspikes on firm snow in AM, snowshoed out on softening snow in PM. Route was well packed. Engine Hill Bushwhack seemed to follow a good route. Perhaps some creative route-setting near (east) Isolation Trail/Davis Path junction, but it worked fine. (There did seem to be several blowdowns in this area, but the route weaved around them.) Low boughs across Davis Path weren't as bad as they could have been. |
