| Comments: |
Carter-Moriah trail became increasingly hard to follow going north. Some recent activity to S. Carter, no apparent activity from South to Middle, and I lost the trail completely between Middle and North Carter Trail and had to bushwack. Snow on the ridge is still very deep. I used Micro-spikes until the bushwack because the snow was firm, then snowshoes down N. Carter Trail. |
