 | Comments: |
It took me 4 hours to Whiteface, 2.75 hours back to the car, 15.2 miles total. I ran the last 2 miles. The only place I used snowshoes was on the way down Square Ledge trail to help smooth it out. The rest was totally bare bootable, it was a perfect day to be out. Note: I saw only one set of boot prints heading to Sleeper trail/ Downes brook. |
