| Comments: |
Road was well packed. Trail had been previously broken out but due to drifting we had to rebreak several sections particularly the slide sloping portion of the trail before the final brook crossing. Great hike with Sabrina and the trail dogs Terra and Madison. This was Grid Peak #573 |
