Snowshoes seemed the best choice for the conditions this afternoon. With tomorrow's forecast, the best choice for this trail will be to let it sit for awhile. There's about 6" of spring snow remaining from last weekend's storm and it appears to be melting on both sides (looks as if the ground was not frozen). Getting pretty sloppy this afternoon.
Cloudy afternoon with passing showers (and some thunder) and temperatures dropping from the low 50s to the 40s. |
