These trails are beautiful. Just plain perfect. We started early in spikes since down low things were packed out pretty well but it didn't take long for the beach sand effect to take place and we switched over to snowshoes and kept them on the rest of the day. So many great folks out there today. We bumped into Matt, Rick, and Chris today. It's like a Cheers reunion some days! With the warmer temps, snowshoes will be needed going forward to preserve the trail. Step off the trail and you are going in deep. And whoever laid the bushwhacks deserves a full sized Snickers. Theses are the best tracks I have seen in years - not too high and not too low and no wonky swings out in either direction. Wowza! |
