| Comments: |
Wildcat Ridge trail, although steep, is in great shape. Some patches of snow higher up but nothing of significance. First time since November that we didn't use micro spikes. Little or no mud except for last 0.6 miles along XC ski trail off of the alpine ski trail. Saw only one other hiker all day. |
