| Comments: |
Although it wasn't really in the forecast, it snowed both Sunday and Monday in the area. Yesterday quite hard at times. The tracks from Sundays group were filled in along the Rollins trail. We wore snowshoes the whole trip but the icy patches along Rollins required care. One solo hiker came up Blueberry ledge trail in micros and a pair of fellows came down that way in crampons. |
