 | Comments: |
Quick after work hike from lower (old) parking to top and down. Microspiked all the way as trail was solidly packed by much recent use. Pinnacle Meadows Trail looked well packed down as well. Hogback Trail appeared broken out but not recently used.(this is a mile long trail which connects Stowe Pinnacle Tr. with the Skyline Tr.) If in the Stowe area and want a short well packed out hike this or Elmore would make good choices. |
