Comments
Comments: A mild day today felt more like March than January. Trails are in great shape start to finish. A few inches of new snow on top of a rock solid base made for smooth sailing. Spikes were helpful on the ledges as there is a sheet of ice under the snow. Other than that, we barebooted the entire way with no trouble. No postholes unless you wander off trail. Trails are excellent right now.
