| Comments: |
Just adding a few more thoughts here. I'd imagine snowshoes may be helpful from Engine Hill BW on up if temps warm up and trail softens. Many, many familiar faces seen and met today; nice chatting with all. Like a perfect March 30th day only on January 30th. For an excellent, more detailed report see Chris Dailey's earlier report and blog. |
