 | Comments: |
Started cold from parking lot with minimal snow, decided to use light traction from the lot to lot. Trail was in good shape, hard packed with 2"-3" of light fluffy snow beginning after the re-routing of the GRT. From there it was slightly icy in a few areas but the traction handled it all. Just a great day in single digit temps. |
