 | Comments: |
Trails are nicely snowshoe packed the whole way but still not solid enough to bare boot. I'd say it's prime for smaller / running snowshoes though, but I used my Tubbs VRTs for the traction on the steeps. Nearly every hiker today was in snowshoes, and the one who wasn't was creating a lot of chop and left some deep postholes in spots. The 8 or so sets of snowshoes hopefully has repaired some of the damage.
At the start of the climb up the drainage there are tracks that veered off to the left. My fist thought was they were going to Fool Killer but it appeared those tracks rejoined PBB a short ways further up. Scaur Trail was broken out by a group of three. |
