Great trip up Garfield and Galehead. Garfield was in great condition and most wore snowshoes - we did. Garfield Ridge Trail between peaks was unbroken - just 2 of us so it needs work still. Gale River Trail was pretty beat up with post holing that happened today with barebooters. We smoothed some out with our snowshoes but that trail needs more packing down. Great weather for a good long day |
