 | Comments: |
Terrific day out on this loop with Carl's group! Most of us were in light tractions (microspikes, Hiilsounds, trail crampons) for the entire hike with a few folks using snowshoes at times. Trails were well packed other than a short section with some drifted snow between N & S Twin. |
