 | Comments: |
As of today, this route was a mix of thin snow (not more than a half inch) and bare ground with some wet and muddy spots. No ice encountered. I imagine all this should disappear in the next few days.
For a Wednesday, it was fairly busy here! A hiking group from Temple was out along with a couple other folks. |
