 | Comments: |
Very wet, very muddy, and smallish patches of ice on Cherry Mtn Trail. Mud and running water are unavoidable, so water resistant footwear (or socks) are a good idea. More significant ice and small patches of snow on Martha's Mile. We used light traction on Martha's Mile and on part of the descent on Cherry Mtn Trail. Lots of deer and elk/moose turds on Martha's Mile, so watch out for that. Beautiful day! Mud and water on |
