| Comments: |
Hiked up the ski trail, across the ridge and back to the ski area. Thanks to whoever broke out the trail. Lots of deep powder, some of it still soft when we went through. There are a few places where the tracks deviate from the trail, including a less than fun bushwhack up C. Found the correct route on the return to the top of the ski area. Tried to mark the wrong paths with fallen branches. Pay particular attention to the area between C and D. Once the trail freezes you should be fine with snowshoes and microspikes. |
