| Comments: |
Cold and windy going up the Skylight Trail, but the LT vegetation is thick enough that there was little wind on the ridge. Barebooted the road and switched to snowshoes for the Trail. There's been over a dozen people signed in at the trailhead in the last week, so the Skylight Trail has a wide, firm snowshoe track. The LT was drifted in for a good portion of it. |
