| Comments: |
Broke trail from the beginning. Approx. 8" with knee-High Drifts. Just two of us alternating 50 steps. Waited for some young people to catch up, but no one did. Above treeline visabilty was sparse. Huge cairns on Gulfside were a big help. Winds and Temps. were not a problem
Bill Marcotte completed his January Grid |
