Comments
Comments: We started thinking light traction but put on snowshoes right away at the gate..kept them on the whole way..others were microspiking..broke out north viewpoint spur and Walden Trail to East Loop then East Loop back to Diceys Mill..spur to north viewpoint waist deep in some spots..Dicey had been snowshoed/spiked yesterday but still soft today and we were glad we did the snowshoes..glissladed down Walden with a few unintentional butt sliding moments...
