 | Comments: |
Bare booted up Nineteen Mile Brook until the 3 mile mark. Spikes stayed on to the hut, up to Wildcat A and across the ridge. The ridge is softening up so it was slow going from C to D to avoid post holes and ice. Ski trails were mostly dry and spikes came off soon after starting down Polecat. Spikes are needed for this trip but snowshoes are not. |
