The trail was incredibly beat up! Heavy mud and running water down low. Higher up there were a huge amount of deep frozen post holes all along and into the narrow monorail. The worst I’ve ever seen! Very dangerous. You can’t take your eyes off the trail! Temps higher up were in the mid twenties. If the trail wasn’t so bad, it would have been perfect. It was still a good day. |
