Upper crossing wasn't too bad. Managed to dunk one snowshoe on the way up but kept my feet dry. Should only improve with upcoming cold nights. |

A few step overs and duck unders. Small trees bent over trail on summit ridge with rime ice. All you could do was bull through them. |

| Comments: |
Snow ranged from 4-6" down low to 12" plus crusty drifts below summit. Trail is opened up as well as one person out and back can do. Didn't have it in me to make it over South Twin (or the time) so the North Twin Spur is not broken out yet. Views were fantastic in all directions. Very little wind and pleasant. |
