| Comments: |
There is a stretch of packed snow on the upper section of the 19MB Trail, but I was able to place my feet carefully enough to avoid postholing. On the Carter-Moriah - north of Carter Dome - there were two significant sections of packed snow which also required care. It's going to be there for a while longer. There are various other little areas of snow and ice that are easy enough to get around. |
