 | Comments: |
Ahh the effing Carters, in spring, what a treat. Took a guest up for Redline and after Carter Dome she had enough so we didn’t finish the loop. Mt Hight still hasn’t been touched. The tops of the signs at the junctions are barely visible. There is already an unstable monorail forming. We wore spikes on 19MB and snowshoes the rest of the way. Saw a guy at the summit in spikes, he really did a number on the already junky trail conditions.
Bring the snowshoes or you are in for a sufferfest (you know, more than the usual). |
