What a fantastic day in the Presi's and even with the winds and cold temps everyone was in great spirits. Trails are in good shape although the Jewel was softer in the PM and a little tricky to get down. A good mix of snow, ice, and bare trail heading over Gulfside so, choose your traction. Enjoyed meeting everyone today and get to share the trail with so many positive hikers. Thank you all for a great day. |
