| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Kudos to the adopters of Valley Way and Amphibrach for removing some rather heavy stuff.
All trails are clear of blowdowns with the following exceptions:
- 2 left on Valley way - one is a bit tricky and will be more so with more snow
- 4 on Hincks - with one being a bit awkward. This one will be very difficult to remove
- 1 big one on Amphibrach - but is has been de-branched and is easy to get under (or over with more snow) |

A delightful day in the Northern Presies for Georg, Lucy and myself.
All trails are snow-covered. Trace-amounts down low to 4" up high. Some drifts - mostly in the Jefferson vicinity. Madison-Adams area is mostly bony. Some ice on Valley Way but almost nothing elsewhere. |
