Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Lincoln is tricky and largely untracked past the first mile; without snowshoes the crust of varying thickness will support in some places, crack in others, sending you through a couple of feet of powder below. Rollins is packed nicely w/ snowmobile traffic, and all of Winslow is firmly packed with minor postholes.
