 | Comments: |
Georg and I ventured out on this "balmy" last full day of winter - and found absolutely perfect trail-conditions. Thank you to the folks who broke out the trails and thank you to the snowshoe-brigade for packing it down. Probably the best trails and conditions we have seen all winter.
Note: There are few improvisations around the summit of Mt. Field heading over to Mt. Willey. We think all will dead-end or lead back to the proper trail. Stay to the left to avoid meandering.
Other trails: Willey Range to the south of Mt. Willey has been broken out. A-Z to the West of the jct. with Willey Range tr. has not been travelled. |
