With some effort, the trail is now broken all the way to Carter-Moriah which is where we were forced to turn around. There is no evidence of anyone having been either way on the Carter-Moriah trail recently. At one point around the three mile mark, we took a wrong left turn and ended up bushwhacking a fair distance straight towards the ridge. Should this survive the next snow storm, don't turn left at the T junction in the broken path. |
