 | Comments: |
FWT to Hale, lend a hand to the hut and twinway to Zealand were soft but stable - snowshoes were best to avoid postholing, trail from Zealand to bond had not seen any action in a long time, breaking trail in this 1-2 feet of powder was tough & I'm so grateful to my two strong hiking companions who did the dirty work, bare booted across bondcliff then back to snowshoes for the descent until we reached Lincoln Woods. |
