| Comments: |
Snow depths varied from 2-5 inches in the woods to 8-12 inches(drifting) at the top of the hills. Some trails were well packed, almost like a sidewalk. Others, not so good. Not enough now on the most used trails to make snowshoes helpful. Bare boots were enough. Footing was good early in the AM but was getting a little slippery as it warmed up. |
