 | Comments: |
We had not done this trail in MANY years. We arrived to find a difficult parking spot, and an unbroken trail. Our MSR's still sunk in about 8 inches after breaking the crust,so it was a good workout all the way to the tower.No other trails had been broken out yet.More fun, and fast descending. Forecast had been for clouds, but it was clear and sunny all the time we were there. |
