 | Comments: |
Liberty Springs was in perfect conditions, perfectly packed out and used spikes the whole way. Between Liberty and Flume the trail is a mess, I switched to snowshoes because of a ton of postholing. Totally doable but was a lot of work ducking around brush and avoiding the holes made (even by snowshoes) and then froze that way.
Well trafficked to Liberty and only maybe me and 2 or 3 others over to Flume on Saturday. |
