 | Comments: |
Excellent day with friends, with blue sky for mid-day enhancement of views! Trail well tracked with snowshoes, although beyond Avalon/A-Z junction snow becomes loose. We went SS's car-car, but a couple in group did microspikes easily enough. Very fine day for views. Everyone had experience hand feeding gray jays! Only wish there was not a time constraint, so as to do more.
Kestrel data: T=30F W= 10mph max(mostly less) WC=22F. |
