Soft trail from yesterdays warm temps was frozen solid from last nights cold temperatures, with a dusting of snow on bottom to a couple of inches new snow on summits. By midday and late afternoon some parts of trail from sun exposure became soft and slushy. For the most part, trails stayed solid and will solid up again from tonight's cold temps. Congratulations to Eric R. for finishing his grid. A nice Grid celebration for Eric on the summit of Mt. Osceola. Nice finally meeting Jeremy, Byran, Mark,& Bob. Another beautiful winter day in the Whites. Spring 7:21 pm tomorrow. |
