Comments
Comments: Hiked Straightback and Anna today. Up Blueberry Pasture, then linked over to Anna, and descended via Anna-Goat. I was feeling frisky so I decided to break trail up Precipice East and down Precipice West. On all trails, the snow is very soft fine powder that needs packing. I tried to smooth out any post-holes I encountered, but ultimately it's snowshoe season, so please help a girl out! 8 miles in 4 hours of moving time (plus an extra hour of breaks).
