| Comments: |
Trail is packed, but still feels a little soft. 3 of 4 of us were in snowshoes.
Main trail was smooth sailing. At summit loop we went up the right and came down the left. Right had some postholes, but not too bad. Left was way more packed out.
Sosman was super soft. Based on Marylyn’s trail report, it looks like she broke it. Our one spiker had a rough time on Sosman, and we tried to clean up after him as much as we could. Unfortunately, we encountered another spiker (with skis in his bag) on our way out. I’d expect Sosman to be kinda beat up. |
