 | Comments: |
Sections of trip will be very muddy this week. Ground just starting to thaw. Monorail started half mile from road. Trail up North Hancock almost bare. Had to use snowshoes from N to S with short bare sections. Trail down from S still had 2 foot monorail with ice layer under several inches of snow. |
