| Comments: |
Trails have been packed back down into the sidewalk highway they were prior to Fridays snow event. Decent amount of postholing off the sides of the trail on the ridge, the massive amount of people out really helped consolidate the fluffy top layer as there was a decent bit of slide on the trails from the surficial snow in the morning. Still not enough snow for butt sliding in many spots, saw quite a few people with sleds, the top 0.25mi coming down A-Z from the Tom spur junction is the only good section for sliding. |
