Comments
Comments: Good day for Cannon - very little wind, so not too cold. Light traction was all that was needed (although the higher elevations had a lot of ice which may eventually require something stronger than spikes). I should have listened to Prema and left the shoes in the car, but I like to be prepared. Unfortunately, one is gone now!
