 | Comments: |
From the Mt. Kinsman Trail trail-head, the trail was packed out pretty good, bare booted as far as possible. Once you started to gain some elevation the snow was a little soft, and switched to snow shoes. KRT is a white sidewalk from that junction to South Kinsman. Beautiful day out, lots of hikers out on the ridge today. |
