Comments
Comments: Great day to be outside. Some remaining snow/monorail but avoidable for the most part and sections were never longer than .2-.25 miles. A few spots of significant puddles and mud. First part of Liberty Spring Trail is a more of a stream here and there, lots of water! No issue with any water crossings - plenty of rocks! A fair amount of hikers out today which wasn't expected given the lack of cars at Whitehouse trailhead - but many of them were coming from Osseo or Lafayette. We didn't need any form of traction. Just took it slow on the snow and was fine. A couple blowdowns but none in direct path of the trail. Great to see many flowers blooming, too!
