Thanks to TimC for packing out a trail yesterday! Some snow over night, trace down low to 3" up high with some deeper drifting. I was the first one up this morning but soon followed by 19 other hikers, 15 in snow shoes and 4 bare booters tearing up the snowshoe track. Thankfully the large number of folks in snowshoes were making repairs. Bare booters BE GONE!
Some morning squalls but by the time I reached Starr King some sun was out. |
