 | Comments: |
Piper Mountain Trail was tracked out by a pair of skiers that skinned up and skied down. All other trails were untouched since the last storm.
No tracks from any direction at the top of Piper. I broke trail down Old Piper Trail and the White Trail. Deep snow with lots of drifting. I did the best I could to make a decent trail, but it will still need a lot of work.
Snowshoes are an absolute must right now and most trails have not been broken out or are still very soft. |
