| Comments: |
No snow on the lower third of the trail which increased from a dusting above last brook crossing to 3 or four inches near the top. There was some icing from time to time but not enough to really warrant traction on the way up. I did use micro spikes on the way down through the rocky section up top which was snow covered and slick in spots.
Great day on the trail which I had to myself all day. Yesterday I saw several robins on the crawford path, is that normal? |
