| Comments: |
Trail is snow free (and mostly dry) until the last mile or so. Monorail is stable (still about a foot deep) and begins 1/2 before Signal Ridge. We wore micro spikes but we saw a few people bare booting and not having any issues. Great to see Guy and meet Gary T. Would recommend bringing a pair of water shoes for the river crossing for now. |
