| Comments: |
Cold day in the woods in filtered sun. Miscalulated trail condition, brought snowshoes-not needed on hardpack; left behind microspikes-they would be helpful on switchbacks and bushwack. Hazy views from Norcross outlook and atop Nancy. The effort that went into breaking out the bushwack this past weekend obvious and impressive particularly in light of depth of snowpack. |
