|  |  |  | Comments: | Trail was snow free, but had some avoidable patches of black ice (not enough to warrant light traction).  A few isolated patches of a dusting of snow. |  |  |  |  | Name: | rocket21 |  |  |  |  | E-Mail: | rocket21@franklinwebpublishing.com |  |  |  |  | Date Submitted: | 2015-10-19 |  |  |  |  | Link: |  https://www.franklinsites.com/hikephotos |  |  |  | Disclaimer:  Reports are not verified - conditions may vary.
