An amazing day for a hike up to the fire tower. Snowshoes from beginning to end. There is an established monorail on the Tower Trail from the trailhead to about the old ski patrol hut. I broke trail from there to the summit fire tower. My quads were shot but the views were worth it. If interested, check out the video link below. |
