Comments
Comments: 3 cars in the lot on Shaker Rd. when we started, full at end. Tower Tr. was hard packed snow. Could bare boot but spikes were much easier. Lots of logging so the tower now has great views in all directions. Please respect the bridges and stairs of tower and remove or go around with spikes. Fire Rd. was snowmobiled so an easy walk down. Lots of stone walls that are more visible due to the logging. Lutti Loop had only seen one other and was also solidly packed. Win, Vista and Lower were more of the same. Great morning walk with Karen!
