 | Comments: |
As the Hale report says, bare boots on Little River Rd and across the bridges. If you head out on this route, you can expect to be practically trail breaking (especially with new snow Monday PM and Tuesday). Snow was falling in differing degrees for the 7 hours I was out there and good part of the track I made going up (especially above 3000') was snowed/blown in on the way back. There was a faint trail of one person in snowshoes (Friday or Saturday) most of the way up to North Twin. North Twin Trail is well blazed in yellow and the trail is relatively easy to follow anyway. I pretty much broke trail to South Twin with the exception of a few areas of deep postholes (rather annoying). They should be flattened out now. |
