 | Comments: |
Trail is in the best condition ever, pristine white sidewalk with zero poop bags, doggie/human waste or yellow snow adorning the trench, as is normally what we see along this trail. A few rocks poking out at higher elevations from overzealous buttsledding (of which I am absolutely guilty of), and a few spots of thick ice. Trail could be barebooted, but I just love the sound of microspikes on a solid trench! Snowshoes if you head off trail for the loo, as I discovered the snowpack is knee deep. Low winds, lower temps, stunning views, and lovely folks out there today! |
