Met Narcissus and Braggadocio at Starr King. Unfortunately they totally trashed the trail on their descent having left their snowshoes in their car. I just don't get it. These trails are SHARED people and just cause you can bareboot doesn't mean that you should. It's selfish. Dangerous postholes on bottom 1/2 of trail now as yesterday was warm, and now they will all be frozen. I cannot recommend taking this trail until we get some fresh snow, or consider breaking out a new track. |
