Beautiful snow shoe track but many in spikes. Some postholes but not bad. Great afternoon hike that ended in a fairly steady snow fall. I used snow shoes all day and found to be perfect traction for the day. Saw about 20 hikers. Many did just Tom or Tom and Field but the trail is great out to Willey as well. Reports of a Pine Martin near Tom that I did not see. Lots of Jays on Tom and Field. I decided to retrace WRT to Tom and down for a much easier and relaxing exit. |
