| Comments: |
We debated about taking snowshoes and in the end left them in the cars. Light traction was fine. Although there was enough snow for snowshoes further up, they weren't necessary. We met some folks who did the loop up over Blueberry Ledges and they didn't seem to have had any problems with the ledges. Great day to be out and conditions were quite nice. |
