| Comments: |
Trail is like concrete on lower elevations becoming softer as one ascends to my turn around point a few tenths before the KRT. Light traction is sufficient. I wore Hillsound Crampon Pros. This was second trip in last two weeks brushing and clearing obstructions. Met Bengt working on his W48>75 on his way back to TH. The man is an inspiration to us "younger" folks. |
