Comments
Comments: Great day in the woods, trails still covered with ice now topped with 2-3 in of snow,what makes it a little more difficult. Used microspikes going to Tom and through Field to Willey, changed into crampons to go down Avalon tr which was a good idea considering how steep and ice covered some sections were
