| Comments: |
No snow to speak of before Bald Knob. After that, spotty for a couple of 100 yards and then the trail filled in. Snowshoes from then on up and across the ridge. Bare-booters were having a hard time as the afternoon went on. As I descended, the trail was quite wet and soft below Bald Knob. |
