 | Comments: |
Trails were mostly dry with only one minor area of mud. Some of the ledge/rock on the Red Trail was a bit slick so use caution, especially if descending. Nice views from Wayne's Way that I hadn't been to since it was cleared last season. Opened up nicely. Views from the tower were a bit hazy and trees are beginning to obscure the view even more.
Mostly sunny with temps in the 80s and a light wind. |
