 | Comments: |
Followed prior foot traffic on the Engine Hill Bushwack. Then on the way back took Isolation trail all the way back to Rocky Branch shelter#2 instead of bushwack. All trails to summit were bare bootable with light traction. We used snowshoes for most of it to help pack things down. A dusting of snow to start. 2" of new powder towards the summit. |
