Trail Conditions:
- Rocky Branch Trail was packed out but warmer temps during the day made the trail a mess by afternoon. Postholing in snowshoes was the norm within a few miles of trailhead on the way back.
- The bushwack was in generally good shape, but softening and postholing with snowshoes also occuring.
- Isolation Trail and Davis path a little more stable, but soft.
Wear the biggest snowshoes you've got!
