Cabot is a do over as needed a view in winter conditions!! All trails have a decent snowshoe trench and down low was pretty hard packed with some loose powder, up higher more drifting and the trench disappears in spots..I microspiked up to the Mt. Cabot/KRT trail jct. and put the shoes on they stayed on the rest of the day...excellent view day!! |
