 | Comments: |
Spotty sun but no views (limited horizontal visibility). Trail from S Twin to N Twin almost invisible along the ridge (I used a GPS for backup). Good snowshoe troughs up Galehead & S Twin. Also, ski conditions were EXCELLENT from parking area all the way to the first major river crossing on the GRT. Got a little warm later in the day. Saw only 1 soul all day!!! A GREAT DAY!!! |
