| Comments: |
The trail was broken out till about a quarter mile after the junction of the Horns Pond Tail. Deep powder and slow going on the steep part of the Fire Warden Trail. Up high the snow was consolidated and hardpacked. Conditions have surely changed since I did this hike before the big storm. |
