| Comments: |
Put the snowshoes on for the snowmobile trail. Switched to microspikes at the trail head. switched to snowshoes for the steeps. Coming down it started to sleet on us just as we got finished the steeps and the snow was sticking to the snowshoes. Able to bareboot the rest of the way out without damaging the trail. There are 2 tracks on the way in the left one is the more traveled and can be barebooted, the right one needs snowshoes as there has been minimal traffic. |
