Comments
Comments: Great day for this hike with heavy winds and low temps. Trails are well broken out with a nice track started except some tilling at upper elevations above viewpoint right until the summit. Snowshoes went along for the ride today. It was nice chatting with two previous Grid finishers. I met only four hikers today. If someone thinks of it the Cabin needs a new log book- it's completely full. Originally planned on the Twins today but not with these winds.
