| Comments: |
Read a while back, folks felt trail needed snow, Rollins was a mess. It's less now. I powder-tailed in and out with few major drifts to deal with but the bare-boot some days before ahead of me was biggest issues. This is now SNOWSHOE (NOT bareboot/spikes) ready top to tail by route noted. |
