Snowshoes are the way to go, and there is a very good and mostly smooth track for Avalon, A-Z, Mount Tom Spur and Willey Range Trail to Field. Between Field and Willey the snow is mostly packed but still unconsolidated, there were two barebooters doing their best to screw this part up but luckily everyone else out there in the early afternoon had snowshoes so the track should be in pretty good shape albiet a little sloppy between peaks.
Beautiful hike through a winter wonderland today, lots of hikers out and about enjoying the day. |
