Comments
Comments: The Hike was awesome today! I was very excited to complete a hike this early in the season (early for me). The top portion of the hike would have been helpful to have snowshoes so we didn't fall in the snow up to our knees. But it was not necessary.I ended up with wet boots and socks by the end of it, so lesson learned. All in all a beautiful day to hike!
