| Comments: |
Trail is now well-packed and perfect for snow-shoeing all the way (actually, best day/conditions for snow-shoeing this winter).
After the intersection with the Scaur Ridge Trail we (Helle, Cinnilla, Georg, Per) were the first on the trail today and Georg led the trail-braking efforts. A fair amount of drifts but it is all well-packed out now after our efforts and an additional 3 groups on the trail. |
