 | Comments: |
Amazing day above tree line. Not a cloud all day and minimal wind. Airline had no snow, the cutoff was postholed and deep still, good thing it's short. Valley Way is a mixed bag of wet trail and rotting snow on the upper mile before the hut.
I imagine all snow will be gone shortly after Memorial Day. |
