Comments: Not a ton to add on from HMJ’s report.

The dynamic duo who laid out the track last week did yeoman’s work. Route is 5.4 miles one way.

The snowshoe trench is deep and still soft, though mostly because April decided she was gonna show up for two days in mid February.

Too bad the last group of the day up was a group of 4 barebooting that must have started at like 1:30. Trails were total mashed potatoes at that point, so I’d be shocked if it isn’t a little choppy tomorrow. Hopefully the amount of snowshoe traffic today sets up a hard and fast track after the freeze. You aren’t going to get Iso in winter with better trail conditions than now, so go get it. With your snowshoes, of course ;)
