 | Comments: |
Path and trail well packed out until the crossing of Little River, then we were faced with 8+ inches of fluffy unpacked snow and drifts up high. A huge thank you to the man from NY whose tracks we followed and finally met between N and S Twin, you got us there today!! Knee deep drifted snow down to the hut,(that was fun!!) then a well traveled Frost and Gale River trail, though snowshoes still needed.
