 | Comments: |
A mixed bag today. Firm base throughout with different surface conditions depending on elevation and orientation. N Twin Spur was drifted throughout. We followed the general trace of the trail straying in several areas. Avoid the Spruce traps we found about two tenths from the south summit. The Frost Trail was a minefield of snow bombs as the sun warmed the area in the early afternoon. Snowshoes went on at the Little River crossing and stayed on all the way to the car park at Beaver Brook Rec Area. There was evidence of bare booters from the day before with some post holes but they were easily avoided. |
