| Comments: |
7 am start, trail packed well all the way, a few snowshoe side paths dead end quickly or are blocked off with branches. Wore stabilicers all the way. Views from the summit of Isolation were the best, "white" mountain peaks and blue sky. Met only 3 hikers all day. Back to parking lot by 2:30 pm. |
