One inch of fresh powder down low to 2-3 inches up high. Trail is packed out nicely with no post holes! When the trail breaks out of the trees it is a bit tricky to follow-there are lots of ski tracks and lots of drifts. There is actually so much snow that there is a slight (powdery and steep) snow field forming. I chose to follow the ski tracks over to the slopes and walk about 1 minute up the slopes to the Rim trail then took that to KRT. Saw some skiers and boarders in the glades on my way down. |
