 | Comments: |
We went up the Wildcat ski trails and headed north over the Cats and Carters then came down Imp trail. We used snowshoes the whole day and they were needed!
The trail was wonderful until we were coming down Wildcat A. From there over Carter Dome and all the way to Zeta Pass the trail was a complete mess due to post holes. Thankfully once we got north of Zeta everyone had been using snowshoes and the trail is moderately well packed. |
