 | Comments: |
Found the monorail every once in awhile, but the trail got lost easily, likely due to the smaller birch trees weighed down from the ice from a couple weeks ago. Near the summit, lost the trail again and had to trudge through waist deep snow to get back on it. Wanted to do the loop, but couldn't find the split, so just did the out and back. Apologies to anyone following our tracks as it did not follow the whole trail, so probably doesn't count for redlining. Still an enjoyable day with awesome views. |
