| Comments: |
Used the herd path to avoid the first and second crossing. Had to go up stream 100 yards to find a suitable place to cross at the third crossing where there were some felled trees. Rocks were icy. Poles and waterproof boots necessary. Trace of snow early on became 3 inches on the steeps which covered the ice pretty well. Micros were fine. We went over to South Twin hoping the fog would lift but no such luck. Still a great day to be out. |
