Great morning hike -- some drifting and new snow to pack down. Snowshoes the entire trip.
After packing out a nice snowshoe trail, had issue with barebooting group (two adults and two teenage boys) who were bare-booting on my heels....considerably destroyed a nicely packed snowshoe route! Perhaps they were just new winter hikers and weren't aware -- would have been interesting to see them break out the trail with no sshoes! |
