 | Comments: |
Trails are mostly well-packed, but I wore snowshoes the whole time and would recommend the same. There is a false trail breaking off from the Avalon Trail at the sign 0.1 miles before the true Avalon/A-Z junction. It rejoins the true A-Z after the river crossing, but not before a bit of a wander away from the real trail. Some significant drifting all along the Willey Range Trail and the Mt. Tom Spur. Willey Range south of Mt. Field had some deep postholes and generally rough trail. Overall a great day to be out! |
