| Comments: |
Used snow shoes start to finish. Could have bare booted at lower elevation but decided just to put the snow shoes on at the car. About 2-4" of new snow at lower elevation increasing to 6-12" along the ridge with some deeper drifts along the ridge. The trail was easily visible from previous hikers and the new snow packed out after my hike, although it was snowing quite hard for the last couple miles and is likely filled in some. Saw nobody else on the trail. |
