 | Comments: |
Trail in good shape going up though some barebooters we met on the way up will have scuffed it up a bit. Re-Broke trail from the yellow trail over to Belknap following someone who'd been there before the last 4-5" of snow. No drifts. Watch out for skiers coming off the summit, and follow the yellow blazes rather than going down the skier trail beyond the picnic tables. |
