 | Comments: |
Spring conditions ranging from bare trail to icy monrail at lower elevations turning to a nicely packed monorail at the Jackson branch. Monorail is just soft enough for micros to grip well. Snowshoes not needed today but glad to have on my pack as snow levels are still very high at upper levels
I met one other hiker and three others preparing to head up. |
