 | Comments: |
This was a great hike with a taste of early spring conditions after the snow on Friday. Oak Ridge was a stream of mud walk until I hit snow near High Ridge Trail. From there, the trail was a variety of snow conditions. No traction required but I was glad I had my poles, and extra socks and winter gaiters. |
