Early start but plenty of people out, Old Bridal was in great condition, used microspikes the last 300 yards before Greenleaf Hut, Spikes back on again in the scrub on Greenleaf . Ridge was clear of all ice! We met some 5th and 6th graders out with leaders building scree walls and doing trail maintenance on Green Leaf THANK YOU !! The kids looked so Happy!! Spikes back on between Liberty and Flume and also some spots between Haystack and Liberty, All in all 5 x on and off! Ice please go away! Osseo ladders free of ice :) Met Kimball and shared a sunny Lunchspot with fun conversation. Spring has Sprung , red clay mud and mucky trail in some spots THANK YOU Matt and Cousin for a great day out!!! |
