Comments
Comments: Snowshoes worked great above 3000ft. Lend-a-Hand was choppy/rough and Twinway from hut to Zealand Mtn was also choppy/rough. Twinway from Zealand to Guyot was great snowshoeing - very smooth. From Guyot to S Twin, I followed some light snowshoe tracks that crossed the actual trail a bunch of times then lost the trail. Finally was able to find the trail the last mile or so-- no real evidence anyone had been there in a while... after S Twin, all trails in great shape - solid. Awesome views today, sunny, light wind. A great day to be out!!! Saw almost NOBODY all day! Great to meet/chat with Sasha for the descent!!!
