| Comments: |
Blueberry Ledge trail is packed nicely. Spikes were perfect. Still many exposed rocks on the lower section. The ledges are not easy right now due to partial thin snow cover and exposed rock and some ice. Manageable with care; more snow will make the ledges easier to ascend and descend. Kate Sleeper trail is broken, but snowshoes were used to help pack it down more. Snow was about a foot deep on this trail. |
