Tangled leaner (probably tough to address with snow pack) a short distance up from loop jct. on Sosman side. I cut out a few branches on another leaner just below loop split which I had rubbed pack on during trip up. Another well maintained trail; thanks Jeremy. |

As mentioned in DocRoss report the trail was smooth and solid today. Other than him and friend I only saw 2 other hikers; one coming up early afternoon. With the temps the trail stayed packed and imagine it was at end of day. Only section chopped up was Mt. Tecumseh side (right) at loop split jct. which has seen far less traffic than the Sosman side. Microspikes all hike; carried snowshoes in case needed with warmer temps as snow depth is fairly deep. Beautiful Tecumseh day with some winds. |
