Even through the lot was half full, it musta been a group going up Hale as I didn't see a single person out there today. Crossing on the Little River was a little tricky but doable by crossing the upper of a couple possible ways to get across. Mixed bag of semi-frozen mud, broken and blue ice, exposed wet rocks, roots, wet trail below 2500' improves slowly to 3000' where above here the rocks in the footbed of the trail are buried and the large boulders are still exposed as is the trail trench. Need probably about another foot of snow coverage to bury most of these larger rocks and the trail trench. Good base of frozen granular and packed powder is set with the potential for snowshoe season appearing soon |
