 | Comments: |
Lincoln Woods Trail and Wilderness Trail - mostly dry, a few muddy areas.
Bondcliff Trail to Bondcliff - water crossings rock hoppable, tiny patches of snow not even really worth mentioning.
Bondcliff Trail to Mt. Bond - tiny patches of snow even really worth mentioning. Mostly dry trail.
Bondcliff Trail to West Bond Spur to West Bond - patchy monorail (some still rather deep) on both segments of trail.
Bondcliff Trail to Twinway - patchy monorail in the col, otherwise bare.
Twinway to Zealand Spur to Zealand - plenty of monorail/deep snow (water underneath of course), as well as pooled water and mud.
Twinway to Zealand Hut - a few patches of snow until hitting the flats near Zeacliff junctions. Otherwise, some mud. Water crossings hoppable.
Zealand Trail - Mostly dry
Snowshoes would have been of no use. Monorail was fairly firm, but still some random acts of postholing to be had. |
