| Comments: |
Trails are in great shape right now. I saw about 25 people and most were in snow shoes. Bare booters were not post holers today and any roughing of the trail was fixed by the next snow shoer. Very low wind or dead calm for the entire hike and the sun made some appearances in the afternoon. I expected to see some gray jays and wasnt disappointed! |
