Awesome morning for a hike, cold, clear blue skies. I was colder at the trailhead than at the peaks. Lots of gray jays. All trails packed down, I wore snow shoes a little, but mostly hillsounds, you honestly could have bare-booted sections of it today as it was really packed in the lower areas. Story and pics below in link. |
