Comments
Comments: Beginning of Red Trail (snowmachine trail) was groomed and hard, we barebooted to where the Red Trail diverges left (sign); snowshoes from there to shelter, where above skiers had packed it hard and it was barebootable with microspikes..at West Peak Trail jct.(Blue Trail) deep powder to summit (snowshoes); we descended via West Peak Trail (blue blazes)with deep powder and did a lot of snowshoe skiing..only nonvisible mts were the tips of the Presis (until like 3 PM when we were on the road again!!)
