Comments
Comments: Snow as soon as we hit the woods but it was spotty until after 2nd crossing. We balanced on some monorail on the way up. Trail up to Tom was in good shape. Trail over to Field wandered a bit. We followed the trail as best we could to Willey and cleared alot of blowdowns. Some serious postholes left behind by the people ahead of us.
