Thanks to Waumbek for doing the job yesterday..it appears another small group snowshoed up to N Carter/Imp jct and took the north fork of the Imp Trail, late yesterday (maybe for sunset hike??) so Imp south was well packed. We followed Waumbek's track from yesterday and then returned after hitting Middle Carter, so the track is there. Presidential's stayed in the ice cloud all day, nice views otherwise. Snow is still pretty powdery in most areas.... |
