| Comments: |
A couple fluffy inches fresh snow atop ice/frozen granular base. No need for snowshoes, trail well packed, icy on the steep sections. Microspikes worked well. Zealand Road covered well for XC skiing and snow mobiles. Used sled on trail descent at a few stretches but still lots of rocks poking through snow. |
