 | Comments: |
Marston is broken out again. Trees and branches galore are ready to be reloaded with snow. Drifts prevail to such an extent at the terminus, it was not apparent where trail ended. We weren't even sure we'd made the junction, but the trail forward descended into drift and promised spruce traps. Best wishes to anyone trying to push beyond this this winter. |
