Access Rd adds 1 mile but is packed down. Trail for the most part is packed with monorail stable. Used snowshoes all the way to help pack it down. Saw people in Micros & bare boot, & saw several postholes so...use snowshoes to keep packing trail down. Beautiful in woods, fresh snow covering trees the whole way. No views today summit in the clouds. Towers incased in snow & ice, combined with clouds couldn't see them until right on top of them. Nice easy hike, will be back to see what I missed! |
