 | Comments: |
Finishing off the ridge for November with Liberty and Flume. Trails are good and seem to be filling in nicely. Still no need for snowshoes but spikes are a must. Lots of Ice on Liberty Springs and on the summits. We made great time today as we were able to move really quickly. I could not have asked for abetter day on the trails. |
