|
| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Accessed the trail via the vacant lot on Mt. Carter Dr. Parked at the entrance to the road (room for 3-4 cars) as the road (to the lot) is not drivable. |
|
| Surface Conditions: |
Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular, Snow - Unpacked Powder |
|
| Recommended Equipment: |
Snowshoes |
|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
Open water - all easy step-over crossings. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
A dozen of so blowdowns along the trails - mostly between the 2 most significant crossings - plus a bunch of smaller stuff. Herd-paths are forming around at least 3 of the blowdowns. Not terribly difficult to deal with but gets pretty tedious at the end of the day. A small saw (which we unfortunately did not bring today) could help clear a lot. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Excellent conditions for canines and Lucy had a great and trouble free day (except for the balling up of her paws despite generous application of Musher's Secret) |
