Nasty conditions today. Mud, leaves, running water on the trail and slush under 2400'. The trail is snow-covered but boney from 2400' to 3500'I barebooted to the spring (around 3500') and then snowshoed from there as that was the best traction option - there was about 4" of new powder. No views. Didn't see a soul. |
