Comments
Comments: Spikes all the way early am as everything was frozen solid. As in jacks previous post, there are lots of paths on the bushwhack. Stick to 3200 for your line and you’ll be good. Windy early in the morn but died down quickly. Snowshoes went on just before the last water crossing on the way back home as the sun warmed things up and softened all the snow. Great day and the views from the birtch glades were outstanding. Gaia had it at 5:48
