Comments
Comments: The snow was deep and soft. Everyone else had snowshoes. The trail was soft and I made an effort to stick close to the center of the crusted portion of trail. When my steps were too wide or far off center, the crusted snow wasn't well supported. Hiking partner took their snowshoes off for a moment at the walden outlook and the snow was soft, post holed.
