 | Comments: |
Trail was in really good condition considering the weather over the past few weeks. At the lower elevations its a bit muddy/slushy but definitely still passable. Still about 1.5-2ft of snow on the top half of the trail, its was very wet/sticky (45F day). Saw a few people out, all using bare boots or microspikes. There were dog tracks out as well, but didnt see the dog, probably a little precarious for a dog unless its a pretty good hiker. |
