Hiker Ed led us on another incredible bushwhack with a mixed bag of conditions including bare marshy sections, hard packed snow and dense woods. It was easy to stay on the monorail bare booting on Isolation Trail. We put on micro spikes on Davis Path in anticipation of icy conditions on Isolation Spur but was pleasantly surprised that the footing was excellent. Two to four inches of new snow on Davis Path. Thanks to Hiker Ed & Diane for a wonderful day in the woods. |
