Lincoln woods...fine.
Osseo was broken recently, but needed a lot of work, and my solo effort only helped a little bit. For almost 2 miles it was 3-6 inches of snow, and up to around 2800 feet there is now a solid monorail. After that it it still could use a lot of snow shoe action especially with more snow due. After 3800 feet you're in for a treat. The trail is very easy to find, but it isn't very packed down. Once you hit the junction it should be easy going. More snow this week will change all of this of course. |
