 | Comments: |
Walk on the old roads was fine. Pretty wet where the trail parallels the brook. Snow started just before trail junction but ended as I left firs and rounded corner. Covered the trail uniformly from the view-spot on. In between there was some nasty unstable monorail and rotting snow. The top was great with good coverage and solid footing. From the cabin on there are several alternatives to getting to the summit but they all work. |
