 | Comments: |
I continued up corporation road on foot, soon bearing right onto a private road. Snow was 4-6" to start. I followed the private road up to a house and continued to follow it towards Corporation. At what felt like a height of land, I turned up hill, headed west towards the peak. As I went up, snowdepths increased up to 15in. with higher drifting. Going was steep, but open to Corporation. The walk over to round was open too.
Headed over to East round, I hit some very steep going because I hit the col just a little too far south. Things were a little thicker on this side of Round and the boughs were snowloaded. I got up onto Round's NW spur and followed the ridge to the top. I followed my tracks back along the ridge and took roads and open woods bushwhacks through the drainage and back to the car.
I wore snowshoes Car to Car. All three highpoints are recognized. |
