Barebooted herd path, North Twin Trail, and Firewardens Trail to about 3400 ft, where ice became harder, smoother and more constant.. Spikes to summit and back down to about 3200 ft. Lower FT boggy sections were still frozen today but look like they will become sloppy mud pits once the temps warm up. 2-4" new snow from Monday, with more coming down as we finished up our hike!
Note Little River did not look like it would be much fun to cross right now... |
