Comments
Comments: Turned back at the hut due to lack of time (took us over four hours to hike the 2.9 miles to the hut). Still good views to be had!

Old Bridle Path was almost completely unpacked, with only a couple sets of footprints all the way to the hut. I wore snowshoes for the whole hike except for a short section near the hut. Trail should be well packed now.

Thanks to Josh and Ray for a good time!
