 | Comments: |
Great day on the trails. Was a bit brisk at start. It had snowed about two inches last night but seemed to condense quickly. Toward the top there was a lot of black ice that was covered with new snow and made the trail very slippery. Even with microspikes. Needed to stay to the side of trail where the snow had more grip. Snow as also balling up do to spring conditions. Overlook trail was a really nice trail to descend on. |
