 | Comments: |
probably about a 50/50 split of bare and snow covered trail along this route. honestly a lot more snow coverage than i was expecting. every trail had a mix, but the most continuous snow was between anna, mack and klem. i bare booted the whole route. light traction would have been useful in places, but would have come on and off a lot. given the warm temps today things were melting fast. |
