 | Comments: |
the trail was a bit beat up from the thaw and rain, but there was a stable monorail for most of it (strange to talk about monorails in the dead of winter). i took the snowmobile trail down from the summit with the intention of buttsledding. there were only a few spots for this as most of the trail was rutted with running water or slush. kind of a mess. |
