 | Comments: |
I used microspikes till shortly after 3rd crossing; then snowshoes rest of day. All 5 others I saw from this side in snowshoes also so trails nicely packed. Summit of South Twin was icy but some form of traction was adequate. North Twin end of North Twin Spur drifted in; 4 did out & backs today to South Twin so trail should remain visible along with the nice blazing. Reports from others that Lend-A-Hand and Twinway to Galehead broken out. |
