 | Comments: |
Dry trail up to the Ethan Pond / Willey Range junction. Ethan Pond trail above Willey Range Tr. has monorail, sometimes stable, sometimes not. Willey Range Trail strats out dry, but snow builds to stable monorail. The ladders were clear and dry. Microspikes worked well. We carried snowshoes, but did not use them. |
