Gorgeous day in the Willey Range! Opted to skip out on Willey, as the trail was not well broken and my partner didn't have snowshoes. Trail is essentially a sidewalk - we used microspikes all day but could have taken them off around Mt Tom when the conditions got wet, sticky, and slippery by the end, so I imagine it'll freeze again soon, and mix with the incoming new precipitation.
A great day with excellent views and very moderate temperatures after yesterday! |
