| Comments: |
Started on north end of Imp trail and up North Carter to Carter Moriah to middle and south Carters, the entire Imp trail is in tough shape particularly the south branch, very tough walking a lot of frozen footprints and post holes. The rest of the trails are in good shape thanks to whoever wore snow shoes when they needed to, we carried snow shoes but were able to use micros because everything is frozen solid. Super cold and super windy but a great day with tough conditions. |
