Comments
Comments: Trails well packed from the parking lot to Zeta Pass. Micro-spikes were fine. Snowshoes with traction required for the last 1.2 miles. The trail was broken a few days before but today had major drifts. The average drifts were 6-12 inches. Some spots had only 2 inches but many had 3 feet. Thank God no steeps:) Winds were forcasted to be high but were only 10-15 mph on the top with a temp of +7. Vis was less than 1/8 mile.
