At 315 no one left at the hut except a pair of ascent snowshoes, tied together and leaning against the hut. Debated whether to bring them down and leave at the kiosk or someone out there hikes later than us. Left them there on the chance their owner was still in the area. Hope they get re-united. |

 | Comments: |
Been enuf reports on valley way, it’s great at the moment, but that’s old news today. See lost and found.
Thanks to the two snowshoers, the track was firm, and now it’s better, but boy some areas are really bony. |
