 | Comments: |
Short version: trails okay with snowshoes or skis today, but probably should be avoided for a few days thereafter due to mud.
We picked up about a foot of wet snow from the storm. The ground was not frozen underneath and temperatures were in the 40s this afternoon, so it's going quickly. About 6-8" of snow remains with slush coming through. Most tracks are either snowshoes or skis. |
