 | Comments: |
Lovely snow, trail broken out but still soft enough that snowshoes are required. Much "glissading" on the descent. Started late, turned around before reaching East Cannon (not a great day for me, great conditions, though)
Cannon glades are open for skiing - (4) glade/trail crossings can be challenging with steep sidehills, have to watch for skiers (saw over a dozen Saturday). |
