Comments
Comments: Not too much snow on the lower part of the Garfield trail. All well broken to GRT. The climb to the summit was easy in snow shoes. GRT had a very steep section with some tough flow ice. Everything is now well packed out.

Thanks Kyle for coming for half of this one and spotting me a car.
