Comments
Comments: Trail conditions are all over the place.
First mile is mostly exposed needles and leaves with some small ice patches.
Next 2 miles are basically exposed with more consistent ice and some running water. Lots of washouts and exposed rocks

Beyond this the trail becomes more consistent with firm trail rail with washouts occasionally. The last mile snow depth is better with no washouts. I used hillsounds door to door.
