| Comments: |
Wet trail up to about 2,000 feet, then accumulating snow. Wet/sticky snow perhaps up to about 3,500 feet, then more of a powder. New snow depths were generally 2 to 3 inches.
I left my Microspikes in my pack, but was glad to have them just in case. Monorail and/or ice still exists under the new snow for the top mile or so of trail. The snow was just sticky enough for me to bareboot today, but I plan to carry the Micropsikes on this trail for the near future. |
