What's the logical thing to do after two snowstorms? Bareboot up a mountain, apparently. After breaking out the trail yesterday, I discovered someone had postholed the crap out of it when I returned this morning. Lots of 3", but also quite a few one to two foot deep postholes. They must have had fun on the ridge, as the drifts continue to build. I fixed some of the damage, but my ankles are sore, as their stupid postholes had set up in the colder temperatures overnight. Very inconsiderate.
WEAR SNOWSHOES! |
