Comments
Comments: Gale River Trail was snow free and mostly dry. No blowdowns.

Garfield Ridge Trail - a few tiny patches of snow (avoidable), otherwise mostly dry.

Frost Trail to Galehead Mountain - mostly dry.

Twinway to South Twin - mostly dry, a few tiny patches of snow/ice (avoidable).

North Twin Spur - lower 200 or so vertical feet into col from South Twin features patchy snow, but it's been well travelled, so barebooting is no problem. No monorail. From col to North Twin, snow free and mostly dry.
