|  |  |  | Comments: | Great hike today, snowshoes all day. Trail was unbroken when we got to the trailhead. We were the only ones to break it all day. We left a pretty good trail for others, but will need much more to make it a sidewalk. Did not see another soul on Hale, we were the only ones to hike Hale today. |  |  |  |  | Name: | Johm |  |  |  |  | E-Mail: | jcmtchell@gmail.com |  |  |  |  | Date Submitted: | 2020-01-19 |  |  |  |  | Link: |  https:// |  |  |  | Disclaimer:  Reports are not verified - conditions may vary.
