 | Comments: |
Looking for something with good views and sheltered from winds and Willard fit the bill. Easy packed trail all the way up with lots of traffic out today including one gentleman skiing down the trail and others coming down from some ice climbing. Mix of snowshoes, light traction and just boots all of which are fine. Clear blue skies up top with great views - winds not too bad on the ledges but a bit chilly on the upper trail heading down. |
