 | Comments: |
Spikes from Beaver Brook on hard packed trails/rd to the steeps. Switched to snow shoes and kept them on to the junction with the Fire Wardens Tr. Bare boot on hard packed trail/rd/rail grade to 7 Dwarfs.
Overall trails in good shape. Several inconsiderate folks postholed from N Twin to Little River. There is still deep snow up high. Use shoes.
Great day out with Steve Barbour and Al Parzych. |
