Greenleaf (up), Bridle Path (down)
The Greenleaf below the hut is fairly rough: narrow, lots of small postholes and small blowdowns. Snow is softening and getting slippery. A road less traveled than Bridle Path, but that shows. From hut up all is OK, given the major thaw. Bridle Path predictably slippery in all the steep spots, but less so than it might well have been--or probably will be by later in the week.In good shape in the woods lower down.
50° on the summit with not a cloud in sight--a glorious beginning to Spring! |
