Great conditions for April. Usual mixed bag but nothing terrible. Light traction( beater spikes) were all we needed . The report from yesterday still holds true. Shocking little snow up on the ridge here. You could step off the monorail and not posthole. Probably be barely any of that left after a couple days of rain and warmth. By next weekend, you probably will need more bug spray than traction. Great people on the trails today, always fun seeing fellow aspiring gridiots out there. On to May ! |
