 | Comments: |
We put our snowshoes on as soon as we got on Zealand Road and wore them the rest of the day. We followed some ski tracks to the summit of Mt. Hale. Once on Lend A Hand Trail we broke trail in snow that ranged from 10 to 18 inches deep. We wanted to head over to Zealand but the trail breaking slowed us down a good amount. We broke out the first 1.2 miles of the Twinway Trail and also over to the view point. A great day playing in the woods in deep snow. |
