Put snowshoes on at trailhead and left them on all day. N Twin trail was still a little boney with 3-6". On the N Twin spur there was a consistent 8-10" with drifts of 2 feet in sections. Twinway to the GH hut 12" plus, Frost trail 6-8", Gale River Trail 4-8"
It was a great day in my new snowshoes and fun to be out. We didn't see any dogs, people or bugs all day! btw, I love dogs and most people but can do without the bugs. |
