 | Comments: |
Lots of bare trail low down then hard packed and some ice. I think the trail would have been a little rough for snow shoes due to previous boots on soft snow that is now frozen. Some post holes but they were mostly to the side of the trail. Good going and the crust was good enough to walk around all the water on the trail. Perfect time to get those peaks. |
