 | Comments: |
Great bluebird day. Long but great.
Hard crust made sawyer road and the first part of signal ridge pretty fast. But on ascent/descent the trail became very choppy with a mix of bare boot post-holes/snowshoe post-holes/ short segments of monorail, and weird melt patterns. A bit of an ankle turner, hopefully some new snow will help. |
