Trail was broken out so we were very happy. Ran into the folks who broke it out on their way down and thanked them. The number of skiers coming down the trail was a hazard however. When we got to the col the trail faded. We tried for a bit to follow my GPS track but kept sinking in spruce traps. Decided to follow the skiers tracks out to the ski hill were we finished the last little bit to the summit. Didn't feel the least bit bad about snowshoeing up the ski hill since the skiers didn't have a problem skiing down the hiking trail. No views today but a nice day to hike! |
