 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Still passable with a jump, but beginning to widen with run-off. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Lincoln is tricky and largely untracked past the first mile; without snowshoes the crust of varying thickness will support in some places, crack in others, sending you through a couple of feet of powder below. Rollins is packed nicely w/ snowmobile traffic, and all of Winslow is firmly packed with minor postholes. |

67lb dog was exceptionally happy and had no problem coasting on surface conditions. |
