| Comments: |
All trails were hard packed and micros were a good choice today. Snowshoes came along for the ride but never left our packs. The running water along the trail undercut the snow in lots of places, most were bypassed, others you had to watch your step. Temperatures stayed around 26F up top and 35F down low. Overcast spoiled any good views. Great day to be out hiking! |
