For the most part the snow has filled in the trail quite nicely though some rocks are poking through here and there. It was dealer's choice for footwear today: some chose snowshoes, others had Microspikes and some barebooted - though I'm not sure any choice was ideal. I used shoes for the traction and stability but to each their own. In any event the trails are in good shape and good time can be made if you are so inclined. I opted to chat with many folks along the way, snap a number of pics and enjoy the simple pleasure of being on a trail. |
