Comments
Comments: I had barebooted up to the second Crossing and then put on spikes. There were five in front of me and did a nice job of packing down the fresh two inches of new powder. There is a nice monorail developing with some ice underneath on top of some of the bigger rocks… It was my16th winter but my first this season. As I was coming down there were ten heading up. Nice to see so many out.
