 | Comments: |
I started around noon to give the trails some time to dry out but they were still very wet and there was a dusting of snow above 3500'. Despite this the footing was good except for some icy roots above 4000'. Coming down A-Z trail required attention to the footing due to wet slippery leaves but it only slowed things down slightly. Foliage is past peak and lots of leaves are already on the ground. |
