Comments
Comments: Monorail is starting to rot a bit in some places, but in most places it can be worked around. Trail was wet in some places but again, nothing too hazardous.
Barebooted the whole thing, but there were definitely places where I heavily considered putting on microspikes (especially between Field and Willey).
