 | Comments: |
Spent all day in light traction. Trail had 2"-3" of fresh powder that is now consolidated into the frozen granular base after the many feet that traveled there today. Icy on the upper Dicey's Mill Tr beyond Jct with Rollins Tr. Rollins Tr was all ice with the snow cover and difficult. Not enough snow for Snowshoes and icy conditions but not enough for full crampons. |
