 | Comments: |
Jewell Trail is bare bootable(we used light traction) until we broke out at treeline. Then had to switch to snowshoes as the trail was blown in with drifts up to our knees. I'm sure that section will be all blown in again by now.
At the Mt Clay Loop Trail we put our micro-spikes back on for the hike up Jefferson.
We needed face mask and goggles today and it looks like about the same temps and wind for tomorrow. |
