Comments
Comments: Great day to be out. Still fall but winter conditions. Trail is in great shape, thanks to all who used snowshoes to pack this down. I started in shoes but switched to micros as these were perfect for trail. Saw 17 out today was surprised there weren’t more. Perfect temps no wind until Starr King.
