 | Comments: |
Trails are in great conditions. Snowshoes worked great all day. All the trails were well packed down low, then at higher elevations they are not was well consolidated. On the section between South and North Twin the snow was windblown even though a group of 3 had been through earlier in the day. Be careful to identify where the trail is when you start to descend from South toward North as it was a bit difficult to see. |
