 | Comments: |
Not much snow depth down low so lots of rocks and ice showing. Some may be able to bareboot with care but I preferred the spikes for the added traction. Snow depths increased with elevation eventually looking more like winter at the Bald Peak Spur. Trails were solid packed with some shallow post holes making for some tedious footing at times but overall not too bad. |
