Thanks to a report by Heather and kali I decided to get this one done. Her group laid down a great trail top to bottom. There was a dusting of new snow at the bottom and about 2 inches near the ridge. However the drifts crossing the ridge and in the woods either side were approaching a foot deep. I bare booted to the drifting then switched to snow shoes and kept them on up to the top and back down to the brook crossing to smooth the trail. Very nice temps allowed base layer hiking today. Didn't see anyone on this solo hike. |
