 | Comments: |
Encountered no ice - however based upon the amount of water on the trails, that could change once the temperature drops. Air Line to Short Line, and from Chemin Des Dames to Adams was wet. Short Line was muddy in spots and was a brook in others. King Ravine Trail had slippery rock, as did Chemin Des Dames. Gulfside was a bit muddy near Air Line. Osgood Trail had wet rock. Valley Way was rather wet and muddy, due in part to many clogged water bars (tried to clear a few with my boots). |
