Still wall to wall snow with 18 to 24 inches down low and over 4 feet up high. Got soft in warm temps, please bring snowshoes still! Trail got some good bareboat action today and numerous crotch deep portholes abound. Definite narrow monorail now, if you miss it you will sink.
Great to see a huge bull moose on trail 50 yards away this morning. Also nice chatting with Freakish Calves and Mike. Blue skies and high snowpack provided some view to Franconia ridge and even the presis in one spot. Great to be out!
