 | Comments: |
THe upper 1000 feet of ascent were covered by 3-4 feet of fresh new snow which was even deeper in drifts. The snow completely obscured any sign of the trail. Snowshoes were a must but even then the branches were in our face and made it feel like a bushwhack. In a few days the snow pack will settle and with the forecast rain maybe the upper trail wont be so difficult |
