Gorgeous day to be in the mountains. I walked along 302 to Zealand Road. Lots of snowmobiles and skiers coming from the hut. Trail is in great shape. Snow was soft so snowshoes are recommended or you will posthole. Snow mushy on the way to Middle Sugarloaf. Wonderful views despite the clouds. Butt luged down. By the time I got back to Zealand, the snow softened from the warmth. Still a great day to be in the woods. Blog with pictures after my next adventure. |
