Comments
Comments: Carried snowshoes but didn't use them. Trail packed down well. Could easily get away with microspikes although that may change after the snowfall coming tomorrow. Definitely go up the North Link. It's super steep and a pain to climb and coming down the North Link wouldn't be much fun. Coming down the South Link, however, is awesome as it's a quality butt sled down almost the entire way.
