We started out using traction from the parking lot due to an early start in the dark. The new snow was beautiful, though not yet filling in around the rocks - fair amount of ankle twisters (frozen slush) from others on a warmer day. Today was a preview of winter with bright sun, blue skies, under-cast, and winds with a little bite.
Nice to see Mike and Lori, thanks to Al for joining me. |
