| Comments: |
Occassional patches of ice on the trails, but easily bypassed or crossed. The trail descending the north side of Watatic had some tricky patches, but my microspikes stayed in the pack. The ground is still sort of frozen, but with some warmth and rain, some sections of the trails may transition into boot-sucking mud. |
