Easy bareboot up to a little ways past Flume Slide Trail junction, then the snow got looser and softened up, so it was snowshoe time. The trail was tracked out, but not really heavily packed down. Not many postholes yet, but the trail was getting pretty chewed up by barebooters when I was coming down. Most people I saw didn't even have snowshoes with them, and the ones that did were wearing them. Bring your own gravy for that yummy mashed potato snow. |
