Three puppos out on the trail today. As a note, if your puppo poops on the trail, please clean up after it. I’d rather not have poop on my snowshoes or spikes. |

Solid monorail for the first mile or so. Gets increasingly less consolidated as the elevation increases. Fair number of postholes along the switchbacks where it’s really steep.
What a spectacular day today! Wore snowshoes up and spikes down. That’s definitely the way to go, though you could bareboot the entire thing. But the heel lifts on the snowshoes helped a ton going up and spikes helped on the way down. The snow is definitely looser up higher. Of course, everything’s going to change tomorrow... |
