 | Comments: |
Great day, tote road well packed with bare spots and loose stone on road. Marston Trail well packed out, thank you to at least three teams that went out in January plus some in February, you could spike to the North Brother peak! North Brother spur well packed out. There is some ice on Marston leading to first junction with Mt. Coe Trail, melting snow and stream that froze. Cold and windy at top of North Brother, couldn't see if anyone went to Fort, we didn't. Mt. Coe trail to South Brother spur broken out but looser than Marston trail, we put on snowshoes here. South Brother spur well broken out and easily followed. We continued to Coe, no luck with trail being broken out, the three of us broke this 1.1 mile section out. 2 to 3 feet at times, great time going to Coe, very beautiful, especially the last 200 yards! Bluebird day but cold and windy! Very thankful for the brothers being broken out! Overall a GREAT DAY! |
