A long day, but very fun. Unpacked powder throughout the entire trip from 6"-10". Used snow shoes car to car. York Pond Trail was in great shape and easily followed. KRT was tough to follow. There was a lot of snow covering the trunks of the trees and obscuring most of the trail markers, and a lot of trees down. We were able to stay on target for approximately 90%$ of the way to South Weeks, but going up South, I would say we were on the trail less than 50% of the time. The temps were a non issue. Beautiful blue skies. A great day to be out. |
