 | Comments: |
Tripoli Road was groomed, making for smooth sailing to the summer lot. Mt. Osceola Trail was generally set up in the morning, with a dusting of sticky new snow on top, but turned to softer spring snow by afternoon. One ice bulge in the ledgy section that could easily be avoided. Snowshoes ideal. Congratulations to Eric Rathbun for being the 15th Grid finisher! |
