 | Comments: |
Bare ground, ice spots, then snow up to treeline on Old Bridle Path. Above treeline snow is mostly gone, just some spots here and there and ice too. Falling Waters Trail snow cover most of the way then ice one the last stretch. No issues with the water crossings. Light traction worked because it was cold enough, I'd still bring the snowshoes along as there's still a decent amount of snow in the woods the higher you go and might be needed as the snow softens up. |
