Continued redlining Trail Bandit map, making some figure 8 like patterns to get the little connectors between the Corridor 15 SnoMo and the Woods SnoMo trails.
About a foot of snow cover. About 1/2 the time, the crust would hold. Drop about 2" when it doesn't. Probably should have put my tails on, but I'm still working on how to carry snowshoes, spikes, crampons, and tails in my little Osprey pack, and the tails got left behind today. Naturally.
(Got my eye on one of those Cold Cold World packs. Oh, but the DOW the DOW!!) |
