Comments
Comments: still a winterwonderland, deep snow off trail. Well packed trail, I put on snowshoes about a mile up for traction, microspikes would do the trick as well.Great day, cold, but this trail does a great job blocking northwest winds, blue skys with a few clouds on the big peaks. Stopped at the fireplace, but Waumbeck appeared broken out.
