Forecast was sketchy but way off base...Crawford Path perfect for snowshoes through a winter wonderland. Once on Pierce it became evident we would continue in the light winds and under blue skies...excellent..Trail well packed out to Eisenhower where we hung out for a good 20 minutes in the bright sun and light breeze,,,terrific hike and should have gotten going earlier and made it to Munroe...snowshoes all the way today made for easy going..we saw a couple of postholers but most people had snowshoes on |
