| Comments: |
All of the trails were well packed. Lots of people out today, so everything we encountered was well broken out. Most people we saw were wearing snowshoes. The temps were warm, the winds were low, and the Gray Jays were out in force. No or limited views from Tom and Field, the views from the lookout near Willey were fantastic. |
