| Comments: |
A solidly frozen highway bottom to top - solidly frozen snow with long stretches of ice to navigate - traction a must today, a slip and you'll be sliding a long way before you stop! - the past few days of warm temps and rain have left the entire area frozen solid - could walk off trail without punching through at all. |
