 | Comments: |
Lots of snow runoff coming down from the higher elevations. Some sections of trail were more like a stream. We bare booted up the last snow/ice section of about 3/4 of a mile. Put our spike on for the descent. Monorail was collapsing on the way down. With the warm temps I imagine most of it will be gone in a few days. |
