 | Comments: |
Posting for the lost and found update. Also, Middle Sister Cut-Off after the ledges has not seen any action. We attempted, but the wind drifts were blown in and obscuring the trail. Backtracked to Champney Falls Cut-Off and took that up to Piper and to the summit.
Trail was rototilled quite a bit from all the spike traffic. Snowshoes should have been the preferred method today, but #shrug
This will probably all be useless in 12 hours. |
