 | Comments: |
The Carriage Road had a fairly firm snowshoe track up to the PMT and continuing up the road. PMT was broken out up to about a quarter mile from the summit. The previously broken trail was setting up but still soft, snowshoes recommended. The unbroken section varied from 1-2 feet deep with some deeper drifts. No other tracks on the summit as the other trails up have yet to be broken out. |
