| Comments: |
Wore snowshoes for the entire trip (other than the brief road walk). 1-3.5 feet of snow - other than waterbars, no bare ground. Some postholes on the ski trail from barebooters, however the other trails were in decent shape, thanks to snowshoe traffic. Spring snow top to bottom, but firm enough to allow some easy bushwhacking up high with snowshoes. |
