Snow Showers all day. No wind to start out. Everything socked in over 4,000 feet or more. Ridge for Franconie Notch in the clouds. Was fortunate enough to hear, see and feel the Cold Front come in. It was pretty wild above tree line for a while. Heavy snow showers when the front came by. The upper section of the Osseo Trail had a good amount of snow. There was 2 inches at the ladders and up to 3 or 4 inches near the top. Saw a great amount of dogs on the trail. Cool dogs!!! There is one step on the ladder that is ready to cave in on the first or second set of steps before the down look. Be careful on the way down. |
