| Comments: |
Quite a mixed bag of conditions! On FR 11, there were big patches of snow and lots of mud. On the lower part of the Mt. Potash Trail, there was standing water and mud, but after the clearcut below went out of view, the trail was mostly monorail, with a couple tenths of a mile of wet, slippery rock below the top. The snow was definitely spring snow, and it looks like it should melt fast given the (hopefully) warm upcoming temperatures. |
