 | Comments: |
ridgeline trail in pretty good condition despite all the postholes from that day the snow got real soft and the guy without snowshoes had a devil of a time by the look of it. after the thaw the snow froze down right hard and i had no trouble going up and down with just microspikes. you might prefer snowshoes; i had mine with me but didn't wear them. |
