| Comments: |
Trail bushwhacked past the false summit near Mt Cabot cabin but with weather conditions (wind/snow) and no Trail indicators otherwise turned around and celebrated our friends birthday in the cabin with the 2 gentlemen bunked there for the weekend. Not a lot of people out-including our group of 4 and the cabin occupants, only 4 other folks on the trail. Snowshoes required RT from York pond trailhead. Nice powdery snow. Weather was overcast and snowed most of the afternoon. |
