Comments
Comments: Cedar Brook Trail had some icy/bare spots where the trail gets wetter, but the rest of the trail was packed snow and easy to move on. The snow was getting a little slick on the steep sections and I wore microspikes on the descent off S Hancock, though others were fine without any traction.
