| Comments: |
Crawford Path was a superhighway and we hit it at rush hour. Micros were sufficient (you could even bareboot it). Switched to snowshoes part of the way to Jackson and they stayed on until we got back to the road. We debated giving Eisenhower a try but there was a low fog bank nearby and opted for Jackson instead. |
