Comments
Comments: We barebooted the whole thing in trailrunners. Some ice on top 1/4 mile of Garfield and upper ~1/2 mile of North Twin Trail but enough rocks to maneuver around.

Visited East Garfield for the first time in over 10 years. Nice little herd path there now.

Encountered a dude on North Twin Spur wearing ONLY shoes and an... er... "package pocket"... and nothing else. Personally I didn't think it was THAT warm. ;p (And Fancypants thought you see that kinda thing only in Vermont. Heh, heh.). :D
