Comments
Comments: Nat Thompson might need a reblaze soon.

We did fine without snowshoes today, but even as the snow starts to come off the trees and down onto the trail it'll be time even here in the southern whites- so even if I did this again tomorrow I'd wear them. Areas not covered by big tree branches had DEEP snow. I really enjoyed Harris & Thompson trails, a pleasant surprise. Good time to do them when the ground is mostly frozen and no bugs- I will note that there were enough wet parts that we had those fun high heel snow balls on our spikes though. Maybe a deeper freeze will fix soon.

Anyways more info in the report below :)
