Trail mix of wet mud, water, slushy ice, couple inches of hard packed snow. Had micro spikes, but didn’t use them, but I recommend having them, because has potential to freeze solid overnight. Snow shoes definitely not needed. Thunderbolt Trail is reserved for skiers in winter, so use Bellows Pipe both ways. |
