I have been stuck on hikes under 5 miles so, today I needed miles... Lincoln Woods was perfect. I know, crazy right. Seriously, I wanted to feel tired at the end of the day and not from my Arthritis... It worked.
The falls are snowed in.
Lincoln Woods is consolidated up to Osseo. Then it becomes less and less consolidated all the way out to the falls. I used spikes but snowshoes are good too. The more traffic, the more packed down it gets. |
