| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Got stuck in the half of the parking lot closest to the trail. Many nice hikers and snowmobile riders got me unstuck--many thanks! It was plowed, just not enough i guess. The other half was much more clear. |

| Dog-Related Notes: |
Sasha did well on Hi Cannon. She was a little nervous on the ladder but and dog should be able to handle that ladder with a little assistance. She also got a lot of snowballs on her feet. Guess it is time to try the mushers wax again. If anyone else has any good ideas i would love to hear them. |

Hi Cannon was in good shape with a little ice here and there but easy to handle. It was tracked out well with boot prints in a few inches of powder.
We took a side trip to the nearest Cannonball via the Kindman Ridge Trail. Some tracks with about 5 inches of loose powder. The decent on Lonesome Lake trail was a little scary for the first 1/4 mile. Nothing unsurmountable by anymeans just really steep and fluffy snow everywhere. |
