| Comments: |
Spotted cars at Beaver Brook and drove to end of Little River Rd. to park and start hike. Broke out Haystack Rd. to North Twin Trail. N. Twin Trail was broken to Fire Wardens Trail. We had to break trail for the rest of this loop. Amounts ranged from 6" down low to as much as a 14" at higher elevations with even higher drifts.
Long tough day. |
