I kept moving so they didn't bother me, but on the off chance that I stopped for a second at lower elevations, they were definitely active. |

| Comments: |
Hurricane trail was a nice change for my fifth time up Moose. I started at Glencliff and went west-east. The western half was nice and dry for about one mile until it got more muddy with some large patches of deep mud that I skirted around. A few portions of the trail are a little difficult to follow, so take care if you're passing through. The final mile of of the trail (descending to the Carriage Road) was pretty wet, but much easier to follow. Not a speck of ice anywhere.
Carriage Road was in great shape, albeit with a few mucky spots.
Glencliff was smooth sailing. |
