Spiked up to roughly the intersection @ Tom Wiggins trail. Trails are super soft and we wore shoes the rest of the day. Blueberry ledges are mostly bare. No issues there. There are a few dead end spurs off of Rollins. If you're going clockwise just keep right. Roads are semi clear. Kept the shoes on for the slush.
No views and intermittent drizzle all day. Still beats working! |
