 | Comments: |
Fortunately, the uphill access trails were groomed to very near the top of the ski lift and it was easy to snowshoe up the ski trails. The AT was a different story as we went from deep snow with drifts to near rocky conditions where the snow had been blown off. Kept snowshoes on the whole way and had a great hike with the Krazies. We enjoyed glissading down the ski slopes in the deeper powder. Great trip with friends to knock off 5 of the 67 in winter. |
