 | Water Crossing Notes: |
The one major crossing (on the old trail that everyone has already broken out) was problematic, at best. Ryan, Kristina and I couldn't find anywhere suitable to cross in either direction a couple hundred yards, so we wrapped our feet in garbage bags and gave it hell. |

 | Comments: |
Trails are MINT. Everybody stayed off until after the Saturday Night Freeze, so Signal Ridge is a hard packed highway. Only really needed spikes on the way down to control the decent. Off the monorail is a different story, but you can easily get by without snowshoes for as long as we stay cold. |
